Top 10 Agile Thought Leaders and Influencers to Follow on Twitter in 2022
03 January 2022
Agile Workflows
If you're involved or interested in agile, and you're on Twitter, this article highlights agile thought leaders and influencers you may want to follow on the platform.
We started with over 300 accounts and progressively refined it down to the top 10. We're transparent about the criteria and calculations for making this list, so here's how we did it. To qualify, Twitter accounts were required to meet all of the following six characteristics:
- Account is for a person or a professional association,
- Account is 3 or more years old,
- Account is active (defined as 1 or more tweets in the last 30 days),
- 1,000 or more tweets,
- 7,000 or more followers, and
- 90% or more of tweets have engagement (e.g., likes and retweets).
The accounts meeting the above qualifications were ranked ordered and weighted on three factors:
- Number of followers (weighted at 1x),
- Number of tweets in the last 30 days (weighted at 1x), and
- Percent of tweets with engagement (because this reflects the effectiveness of tweets, and to what degree they are connecting with followers, it was weighted higher—at 3x).
The top 10 accounts based on the criteria and calculations follow.

Agile Workflows
Introduction
Scott M. Graffius is a global leader in agile project management, an expert on teamwork tradecraft, an authority on temporal dynamics on social media platforms, a creator, a consultant, a trainer, an award-winning author (Agile Scrum: Your Quick Start Guide with Step-by-Step Instructions and Agile Transformation: A Brief Story of How an Entertainment Company Developed New Capabilities and Unlocked Business Agility to Thrive in an Era of Rapid Change), and an international public speaker.
His intellectual property is appropriately featured and used by businesses, professional associations, government agencies, and universities worldwide. However, some others engage in bad acts such as the ethical issue of plagiarism or the legal issue of copyright infringement, violating Graffius' intellectual property rights.
Graffius actively upholds, enforces, and safeguards his copyright and other intellectual property rights. He employs multiple measures, including identifying infringers, to preserve the integrity and value of his intellectual contributions and to deter future violations. This story exemplifies one of those instances.
Background
Informed by the research of Bruce W. Tuckman and Mary Ann C. Jensen, over 100 subsequent studies, and Scott M. Graffius' first-hand professional experience with, and analysis of, team leadership and performance, Graffius created his ‘Phases of Team Development’ as a unique perspective and visual conveying the five phases of team development—Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning—inclusive of a graph showing how performance varies by phase, as well as the characteristics and strategies for each phase.
Graffius' intellectual property is registered with the US Copyright Office.
He initially developed his ‘Phases of Team Development’ unique material in 2008, and he periodically refreshes it.
Exhibit 1, Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property—the edition applicable to this case, is shown below and attached. It is also available here and here and other locations. The integrated text applies.
As shown above, Graffius’ copyright ownership details are integrated into and appear on his copyrighted property. Specifically, it reads: “Copyright © 2008-2021 Scott M. Graffius. All rights reserved. For permission requests, contact scott@scottgraffius.com.”
[If you're looking for the now-current (2024) edition of Graffius' 'Phases of Team Development' then select here.]

Copyrights protect the intellectual property rights of creators, ensuring they receive recognition and compensation for their work, thus incentivizing creativity and innovation. Graffius is vigilant in upholding, protecting, and enforcing his copyrights and other IP rights.
The National Health Service (NHS) — the Largest Single-Payer Healthcare System in Europe — Violated Graffius’ Intellectual Property Rights
Here's information on the NHS’s infringing publication:
- NHS event: ‘NHS Trusts and Primary Care Collaboration Knowledge Sharing Event.’
- Date of NHS event: 16 October 2024.
- Title of infringing NHS publication: ‘System Convening.’
- Known locations(s) of the HNS’s infringing 2024 publication: The delivery of the infringing NHS publication was recorded and published as a public video here.
Exhibit 2 is shown below and attached. It provides excerpts from the NHS’s ‘System Convening’ infringing publication, which was delivered at the ‘NHS Trusts and Primary Care Collaboration Knowledge Sharing Event’ on 16 October 2024 (recorded and published as a video). The exhibit shows:
- Slide titled “NHS Trusts and Primary Care Collaboration Knowledge Sharing Event”
- Slide titled “System Convening”
- Slide titled “Agenda”
- Slide titled “Continuing to Develop as a Partnership”
- Zoomed-in view of slide titled “Agenda”
- Zoomed-in view of slide titled “Continuing to Develop as a Partnership”
Indisputable proof of the violation is delineated next.
Again, Graffius’ copyright ownership details and permission request information are integrated into and appear on his 2021 intellectual property.
The NHS (inclusive of its entities and people) did not request nor receive permission to use Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property.
Nevertheless, the NHS used Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property in its 2024 infringing publication.
NHS’s infringing 2024 publication used a significant volume of Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property.
NHS’s infringing 2024 publication failed to acknowledge Graffius' ownership of his respective content, thereby misleading others including the public into believing that it, the NHS, is the author and rightful owner of Graffius' intellectual property.
A review of the NHS’s 2024 publication uncovered a slew of infringing content.
Exhibit 3 is below and attached. It provides a side-by-side view of content from Graffius’ 2021 ‘Phases of Team Development’ copyrighted property and the NHS’s 2024 infringing publication.
As shown, the NHS blatantly infringed on Graffius’ copyright.
The NHS’s infringing 2024 publication used Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted content word-for-word.
In what is reasonably considered to be the NHS’s demonstration of its knowing and willful infringement, the NHS author(s) of the infringing 2024 publication seemed to attempt to conceal their theft by slightly altering some words. The NHS author(s) localized some content (such as changing "socializing" to "socialising") and made a few other slight alterations (such as changing "&" to "and"). All of that is still infringement.
In addition to Exhibit 3, here’s a comparison of content from Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property and what the NHS has in its infringing 2024 publication.

Conclusion
Graffius’ copyright ownership details and permission request information are integrated into and appear on his intellectual property. The NHS did not request nor receive permission to use Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property. Nevertheless, the NHS’s infringing 2024 publication used Graffius’ copyrighted 2021 property.
The NHS’s infringing 2024 publication used Graffius’ 2021 copyright content word-for-word.
In what is reasonably considered to be the NHS’s demonstration of it knowing and willful infringement, the NHS author(s) of the infringing 2024 publication seemed to attempt to conceal their theft by slightly altering some words. The NHS author(s) localized some content (such as changing "socializing" to "socialising") and made a few other slight alterations (such as changing "&" to "and"). All of that is still infringement.
The NHS’s 2024 infringing publication used a significant volume of Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property.
NHS’s infringing 2024 publication failed to acknowledge Graffius' ownership of his respective content, thereby misleading others including the public into believing that it, the NHS, is the author and rightful owner of Graffius' intellectual property.
The NHS’s infringement has damaged the marketability and value of Graffius’ intellectual property.
The NHS’s use of Graffius’ 2021 copyrighted property was not ‘fair dealing’ nor ‘fair use’ nor otherwise allowed.
Copyright infringement is disgraceful, unprofessional, unethical, immoral, and illegal.
So long as the NHS’s infringing material exists anywhere, in any form, the NHS continues to spread misinformation and violate Graffius’ intellectual property rights. Accordingly, time is of the essence.
The NHS must immediately implement the following two (2) actions:
- Remove the Infringing Material. Electronic Versions: Immediately remove the infringing material (any and all publications/products with infringement) from digital platforms where it is advertised, promoted, sold, or distributed; this includes removing or disabling any online access to it. Physical Copies: If physical copies of the infringing material are in inventory or circulation, stop further distribution; recall any copies already distributed; destroy copies.
- Issue an Apology. Send an apology to Graffius via email at scott@scottgraffius.com. The apology will acknowledge the infringement and the steps taken (such as Action 1, above) to mitigate the situation. The apology will present the facts as they are—it will not "spin" or "downplay" the infringement.
Again, time is of the essence. Both actions must be fulfilled by 6:00 PM Pacific Time on Friday, 15 November 2024. By doing so, the NHS will demonstrate transparency, professionalism, integrity, accountability, and respect. However, if the NHS fails to do so, it will conversely convey a lack of transparency, a lack of professionalism, a lack of integrity, a lack of accountability, and a lack of respect.
Copyrights protect the intellectual property rights of creators, ensuring they receive recognition and compensation for their work, thus incentivizing creativity and innovation. Mr. Graffius maintains, enforces, and protects his copyright and other intellectual property rights.
Graffius resides in the United States and the NHS is headquartered in London, United Kingdom. However, the United Kingdom and the United States have treaties regarding copyright: Berne (Paris) Dec. 5, 1887; Bilateral July 1, 18918; UCC Geneva Sept. 27, 1957; Phonograms Apr. 18, 1973; UCC Paris July 10, 1974; WTO Jan. 1, 1995; WCT Mar. 14, 2010; WPPT Mar. 14, 2010; VIP Jan. 1, 2021. Additionally, the United Kingdom has strong copyright laws. Copyright laws apply to this case.
Graffius expressly reserves his rights in this disturbing, damaging, and consequential matter.
Graffius communicated the preceding information to the NHS—including multiple departments, executives, and others—via email on 9 November 2024.
