Abstract.
This manual humorously explores common pitfalls in Agile Software Development by presenting a satirical "Simple Sabotage Field Manual." While maintaining a light-hearted tone, the paper highlights inefficiencies and challenges that teams often face, providing unpractical solutions supported by "industry research".

Introduction.
After several years of working on Agile projects, I started to notice a peculiar pattern. Certain team members across different areas seemed to be following an unspoken strategy, one that was consistently asynchronous with our Agile principles. It was almost as if they were part of a covert operation, working silently to introduce inefficiencies and disruptions into our workflow. Their actions were subtle, yet their impact was undeniable.

Intrigued and slightly amused by this phenomenon, I began to observe these saboteurs more closely. Over time, their behaviors and tactics became clear, forming a distinct pattern reminiscent of the "Simple Sabotage Field Manual" used during World War II. Inspired by this realization, I decided to compile my observations into a manual of my own.

This "Simple Sabotage Field Manual for Agile Software Development" is a tongue-in-cheek guide designed to help you identify these modern-day saboteurs within your Agile teams. Each chapter highlights common pitfalls and disruptive behaviors that, while seemingly innocuous, can collectively sabotage your projects.

Remember, these saboteurs work in silence and thrive on secrecy. Never confront them directly or reveal that you’ve identified their tactics—you might just find yourself in deeper trouble. Instead, use this manual to recognize the signs and mitigate the impact of their actions. Watch out for them and keep your Agile projects running smoothly!

Enjoy this satirical journey through the world of Agile sabotage, and may it bring a smile to your face while shedding light on the inefficiencies we often encounter.

One of the oldest spiritual practices, blessing means “to wish, unconditionally, total, unrestricted good for others and events from the deepest wellspring in the innermost chamber of your heart: it means to hallow, to hold in reverence, to behold with utter awe that which is always a gift from the Creator.”  Visit https://gentleartofblessing.org/ for the basic text, a beautiful video that has reached hundred thousands people all over the world, testimonies, and many other articles.

This blessing, along with others shared here, is read by Pierre Pradervand either from his book The Gentle Art of Blessing (http://www.beyondword.com/product/Gentle-Art-of-Blessing-The-0242X) or from his forthcoming book being published by John Hunt Publishing, 365 Blessings to Heal Myself and the World.
