Agile from Hell

Today, I came cross this InfoQ posting on Agile by Karthik Dinakar.

Agile Development: Overcoming a Short-term Focus In Implementing Best Practices

After watching it, I would termed this as "Agile From Hell".
The sad thing is that the Engineering Manager has 12+ years experience from CalTech and the Product Manager  has a business degree with SCRUM certification.

One can't help but thinking whose eyes these two dudes are trying to pull wool over, considering that they don't even implement the very basics of Agile!!. Shame on them.
The saddest part was admitted by the speaker, " They still retain control over the design..". Power struggle?
Having done SCRUM before, I really sympathized with the poor chap.
