Agile Customer Centricity Manifesto

Agile's Customer Centricity Manifesto (ACCM) for Sales, Marketing, HR and More

Agile's Customer Centricity Manifesto - Acknowledging Agility's Elephants in the room

SPRINT 2 Meeting was held on March 31st, 2023 @ 10AM EDT


The Agile Customer-Centric Manifesto (ACCM) recognizes that there are 'Elephants in the room' we often forget in Business and its Sub-Functions: People, Diversity, respect for Privacy and More.


We’re breaking down silos, promoting cross-functional collaboration, based on Social Responsibility and Advocacy for Internal and External Customers, within Business Agility and all the Business Sub-Functions - We are 'reverse-engineering' what Agile's Customer Centricity Manifesto is based on inspirations from diverse Manifestos such as Development, Marketing, Sales, People and HR Agile Manifestos, as well as Sources such as Scrum Values, Declaration of Interdependence and Agile Value linkages Research.


Focus on Humans! The Importance of our Internal and External Customers

Business Agility Communities, Agilists and Practitioners, are uncovering better ways of ensuring Social Responsibility and Advocacy for Internal and External Customers by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:
