This third edition of Agile Project Management in easy steps has been updated to reflect its ongoing evolution. It explains the principles, practices, and processes of agile project management, by following an entire project, step-by-step, and covering the main activities and deliverables, including:
- Pre-project start-up and terms of reference.
- Feasibility assessment and the business case.
- Establishing strong foundations for success.
- Iterative and incremental development.
- Continual as well as post-project retrospectives.
Now with two new chapters: The first addresses how to apply agile approaches to projects in more controlled environments. The second looks at how the role of project management changes in organizations moving from projects to products, where stable long-standing teams work long-term on the same product or service.
An essential guide for anyone new to agile projects and a valuable source of inspiration for the more experienced. It also includes downloadable templates to get you started.
