I'm convinced that the vast majority of business-y manager types that always trumpet "we have to be more agile" have never read the agile manifesto - specifically the "individuals and interactions over process and tools".

It's regretful that it caught on so well and has (incorrectly) evolved into a concrete process in most places rather than an ideology.

I'm convinced of the same thing. I once had a rather enlightening conversation with an Agile consultant who had never read the manifesto. When I showed him, he said "I'm not sure I agree with this".
