Abstract

The Agile Development approach to systems development is the new fundamental for developers. Twelve Principles supporting the Agile Manifesto were elaborated in support. Hence the team always has to look towards identifying and proposing appropriate reference disciplines which are manifest in the Agile Development Universe of Discourse. The Manifesto evokes some reference disciplines to support its various aspects. Why is it desirable and necessary to search for such reference disciplines? The answer is Alternative Software Development and Project Management approaches, such as Software Prototyping and Rapid Development and now including Agile Development, all seemed based on pragmatic experience and have been designed mostly by consultants and practitioners. While this is not in any way to denigrate or deprecate them, it is felt that support for these approaches needs to also come from other disciplines, such as management studies, leadership studies, and the like to give Agile Development a more solid theoretical and intellectual basis.
