The document discusses an agile development approach called "The Pivotal Way". It emphasizes building a collaborative culture focused on agile practices like prioritized backlogs, daily standups, retrospectives, test-driven development, continuous integration, and pair programming. Pair programming involves developers working in pairs at shared machines with frequent rotation and is highlighted as a key competitive advantage.
