Arie van Bennekum is a Dutch programmer and one of the co-authors of the Manifesto for Agile Software Development (2001),[1] the foundational document of the agile methodology for project management and cross-border agile transformations.[2]
He implemented Agile in small and large organizations.[3] Van Bennekum is credited with the idea that Agile has a place outside of software development. He advocated changing the word "software" to "solutions" to open the Agile methodology to everyone,[4] even in companies' human resources or marketing departments.[5] It is applicable everywhere in the company or even in life.[6]
Agile is a project development methodology that requires speed and flexibility. Until a few years ago, Agile was a specific framework for software development. However, starting in 2016, Agile began to expand among a wide range of organizations.[7]
Background[edit]
Van Bennekum was born in Hardinxveld-Giessendam, Netherlands on 2 April 1964.[citation needed] He studied Business Informatics (1988) at the Hogeschool Rotterdam.[8] He holds a degree in Information Technology from the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences (1989-1993) and obtained a degree from DSDM International, Netherlands, in 1997.[9]
He started his IT career as a software developer in 1987 in Rotterdam. After a while, he joined a computer consulting company as a developer then technical designer and project manager. In 1995, he landed in a Rapid Application Development (RAD) project, where he started as a developer working for clients who needed experts in Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM). This agile method focuses on the complete project lifecycle.[10]
Since the late 1990s, as a consultant, he has led international agile transformations across organizations.[11]
Recognitions[edit]
In 2021, the Project Management Institute (PMI) awarded Van Bennekum the "Lifetime Achievement Award" for his significant work in spreading the agile mindset.[12]
In 2017, he was distinguished by Champagnat University (Mendoza, Argentina) with the academic recognition of Honorary Professor Emeritus (Res. no. 61/17).[13]
