Neither...... it is the people that matters : )
Neither Scrum, XP, Kanban etc going to build any great IT/app dev organization. Nor, J2EE, RubyonRails etc.. Always there will be new processes and technologies. But what matters most is the folks you have.
Are you hiring the right people? Are you taking care of your existing folks by focusing on their professional development, giving them growth opportunities, challenging work etc.? Are you understanding their personal goals and aspirations and supporting it? Are you creating an environment for everybody to grow? Are you creating an environment where folks can try new things without fear of failure? Are you managing out folks who are not doing well and are a burden on the team? If you are saying yes to all of these, then I think your organization is on the path to greatness. Then the folks will make the organization great...technology or process doesn't matter at all...

Completely agree... and thats the best kind of value addition to the team one can have apart from getting first hand experience of self development while helping others on the same.
Completely agree with this...In our industry it is always SKILL vs WILL. If we have the will, skill is just a temporary phase
Excellent write-up! I fully agree with you. A human-resource can be guided, mentored, coached with constant feedback and auditing. It is the most valuable asset in my viewpoint :)
Can't agree more..
after all it's people who invent process / technology..no matter how mature your process / technology become, they can't invent (read substitute) good people
Completely Agree Biju ! It is always the people of the organization who are responsible for making the best usage of any process and technology. I liked your blog very much.
