Agile Project Management

Over the past decades, many organizations of varied sizes and business domains have embraced and successfully implemented project management methodologies. However, Project Managers often face significant challenges when practicing “traditional” project management in environments where uncertainty and complexity are high and schedule and requirements flexibility is required. The Agile approach comes to address many of these challenges as it embraces change and provides both the principles and the tools which allow project teams to better deal with uncertainty, work in an iterative way, and provide frequent opportunities for changes or refinements of the project requirements and plan.
