Agility is the ability to respond and adapt to the rapidly changing situations and still deliver results. Such rapidly changing situations (requirements for e.g.) are more common in software industry as compared to other industries. Probably that’s why Agile is more associated with software development.
But as you rightly said concepts of Agile can be used anywhere
I have come across concepts like “Agile Leadership”, “Agile Manufacturing”, “Agile Hiring” etc.”
So there is definitely more opportunities for Agile. All it requires is a complex and dynamic problem the solution to which can be delivered incrementally and iteratively.

Thanks for the review.

I was just wondering why Agile is so associated with software development only. The concepts of Agile can be used anywhere.

So now there is a business opportunity for “Agile in Construction”, “Agile in Retail”, “Agile in Banking”, etc. Just a thought…
