Fear, un-certainty and doubt (FUD) usually lead to 'agile-but' or 'scrum-but' as a result of mangement perceiving a loss of control. I find executives love the end result of 'being agile' but usually don't participate in and support the reality that surfaces during adoption.

He and a couple of linked blogs made a very good case for adopting Agile to the extent it works for the project, and not getting too wrapped up in the "religious" tenets of the Agile proponents. A linked article by Alistair Cockburn listed his top-10 attributes of an Agile project, and highlighted his sellf-adaptive Crystal methodology in a way that was not previously all that clear (no pun -- on Crystal Clear -- intended) to me. I think post-agile might be a synonym for your"agile but". Check it out. Hi Laura,
