>Having agile mindset will boost small business growth since MSMEs will be responsive to risk factors, flexible to adapting to quick changes and take advantage of growing trends. Decisions made can be easily rethought and strategies possibly tweaked. Consequently, there will always be a room for innovation as choosing better options is a constant.

We are uncovering better ways of maximizing value that we provide to customers and providing more ways for them to avail/access it.
Through this work we have come to value:

Individuals and interactions over automated response tools

Providing specific product/service solutions over generic solution

Customer satisfaction and retention over contract negotiation

Responding to change over following a plan

That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.

1. Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of products and services offered.

2. Welcome changing requirements, even in late produc and/or market development.  Ability to adapt to changing environments gives the MSME the competitive advantage over others.

3. Deliver working products frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months to build a good reputation among the customers.

4. Marketing staff and product development staff must work together daily throughout the project.

5. Build new projects / develop new products / craft better services around motivated employees. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.

6.The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a (product / service) development team is face-to-face conversation.

7.Working products and services that address customer needs are primary measures of progress.

8.Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.

9.Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.

10.Simplicity–the art of maximizing the amount of work not done–is essential.

11.The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.

12.At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
