This article describes some seriously clueless agile practices.

A massive reorg and restructuring dictated from the top to enable agile, a bottom-up methodology.

They dictate that everyone must do Scrum - even support departments for which it's laughably mismatched - rather than allowing any level of team-driven process selection, and then 9 months later they open it up to allowing teams to choose, including letting them choose waterfall. Their messaging was this was always the plan, which is either a lie as apparently many people at MIT believe, or evidence that of even deeper cluelessness.

My opinion is that this Charles character has no business running a technology org.
