AGILE SPORTS MANIFESTO
The AGILE SPORTS MANIFASTO - Values and Principles
Recommended Reading Time: 10 to 15 Minutes, Time of Retrospective: 15 to 30 Minutes
We believe strongly in the four core values, while we value the statement on top more then the statement on the bottom.
-
Individual and interactive athlete centric values
over
default exercise and training
-
Holistic, sustainable and agile sports performance
over
“Faster, Stronger, Higher“
-
Stakeholder collaboration
over
top-down actions
-
Responding to change and empirical learning
over
rigid planning
Furthermore, we want to introduce 12 principles which stand behind the AGILE SPORTS MANIFESTO.
1. Highest priority is to satisfy the needs of the athlete through transparency, inspection and adaptation
2. Welcome change as a chance under all conditions of the ecosystem
3. Inspect agile performance development frequently
4. Athletes and their whole networks / communities / platform must work together as a unity
5. Let motivated people join your network, support athletes wherever they need support
6. Effective and efficient way of communicating information by direct conversations
7. Agile performance development is the measure of progress and success
8. Athletes should maintain a constant pace of training / development indefinitely
9. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good/valuable repetitions of movements is key
10. Try to use simpler approaches. Sometimes things are astonishing simple
11. The best agile performance emerges from a good working and self-organizing team
12. At regular intervals, the team reflects how to become more effective in all parts of their life
Finally, a conscious statement on our own behalf:
