Who Gets Blamed When Agile Goes Wrong?

Who Gets Blamed When Agile Goes Wrong? When something goes wrong with a project, who gets blamed? If you are the Product Owner, Scrum Master or Project Manager, you’re probably saying that the leader gets the blame. If you’re a Scrum Team or development team member, you’re probably saying, “We always get blamed.” What if the reality of the situation is it’s a bit of both, and both failures could be solved by a purposeful application of skilled follower-ship? Rob Asghar wrote about this recently in his Forbes article “Why Followership Is Now More Important Than Leadership.” He makes a strong point that “Good, skilled followers are able to nurture good leadership.” He adds that “It’s a lost art in our narcissistic times.” The article, which is worth reading, provides enough information to see that following Scrum principles and practices can — and already do — produce skilled followers who nurture their fellow coworkers and even their bosses.
