Just because waterfall is bad doesn't mean all aspects of Agile/Extreme are healthy.

Good code is architected. It is NOT enough to just TDD. Writing a failing test doesn't substitute for having a good think before you begin.

What works from extreme programming? Feedback loops. Retros, every damn week. If you don't talk about what worked/didn't, you won't improve.

What else works from Agile/extreme? Really clear product requirements for eng, delivering small chunks of functionality. Defining success.
