An eminent researcher in innovation, organisational agility and IT management, Professor Kautz has extensive industry and research experience working with agile and scrum development methodologies. We explore their applicability to creating a culture of innovation and developing prototypes and successful products and services.

In a fast changing society, organisations need to adapt quickly which implies taking more risk to remain relevant. Adopting agile development aims to produce prototypes earlier but requires a more open framework with more trust to work effectively.

What does the research say are the risks and benefits of adopting an agile development methodology? How does this operate in practice?
