I've been trying to find and develop a more concise definition since finding wikipedia's article sub-par. The one point perhaps that is missed is aligning development with customer and business priorities.

Either way, I agree, and I intended that to be covered by "Responding to feedback and adapting to change". I actually removed "in order to learn and improve" at the last moment as it didn't feel balanced with the other items.

Either way, I agree, and I intended that to be covered by “Responding to feedback and adapting to change”. I actually removed “in order to learn and improve” at the last moment as it didn’t feel balanced with the other items.

The feedback loop from the customers should influence and improve our products, and an agile team responds to that feedback quickly. There is also a feedback loop from the process that should influence and improve our team / process. I think an enlightened team would take an "agile" approach to their agility.
