 Compaq. These companies were all iconic market leaders that couldn’t ada
 pt to new business models and technology innovations ahead of their comp
 etitors. Our world is changing fast. Markets and consumers are demanding
  faster\, cheaper\, and better products. Demands for quicker turnaround 
 on new product development and innovation have only increased. Enterpris

 onomic conditions or they will become extinct\, no matter their size\, s
 marts\, or strength. This holds true even for businesses that don’t cons
 ider themselves Information Technology (IT) or software companies. Profe
 ssional services\, financial services\, healthcare institutions\, and go
 vernment entities are all highly dependent on their ability to produce n
 ew technology-based products and services. How do companies like Google\
 , Yahoo\, Amazon\, and Apple keep up? They practice agile techniques.&#1
