How does the Agile Method for Digital Product align with Apple's approach to work?

The Agile Method for Digital Product aligns with Apple's approach to work in several ways. Firstly, Apple enshrines the notion of responsibility, a key Agile value, in its company acronym, the DRI (Directly Responsible Individual). This refers to the person who will be held accountable if a task is not completed correctly. Secondly, Apple teams work in short, iterative cycles, a fundamental aspect of Agile methodology. Thirdly, Apple does not have middle managers, promoting a flat organizational structure which is a characteristic of Agile teams. Lastly, Apple encourages its teams to focus on producing great work rather than saving money, aligning with the Agile principle of prioritizing customer satisfaction through continuous delivery of valuable software.

Furthermore, the notion of responsibility, a key Agile value, is enshrined at Apple in a company acronym, the DRI. DRI stands for "Directly Responsible Individual," and describes the person on any given assignment who will be called on the carpet if something isn't done right. Apple teams also work in short, iterative cycles; don't have middle managers; and are encouraged to do great work rather than to save money, which are all signs of solid agile organization, Denning concludes."
