It’s been 23 years since the Agile Manifesto transformed software development. Frameworks like Scrum and Kanban and other Agile practices have allowed teams to move away from rigid, linear processes to more flexible ones that focus on delivering value to customers faster. Since then, the world of Agile has expanded in scope.

From organizing ideation sessions to automating manual project management updates, the opportunities to supercharge product workflows with artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tools are virtually endless. At this point, it’s less of a question of if, but rather, how teams are harnessing the power of AI to unlock their organization’s full innovation potential.
