Enterprise Agility. An oxymoron?

"If we figure out how to make this work - we could write a book on it" A colleague once told me.

We'd recently started on a very large Public Sector COTS implementation project that was significantly behind schedule and over budget. "Agile" had been sold as the solution to their problems.

In summary - We were in trouble.  

I have a short attention span - textbooks are not my thing. So instead - here's a blog. 

Can you run projects of this size, complexity and historically bureaucratically hindered, using agile techniques?

Apparently So. Go figure.
