Managing Project complexITy using The Project Management Trifecta Agile - Managing Project complexITy using The Project Management Trifecta

Being Agile vs. Doing Agile

Many teams pull tools and techniques from the Agile toolbox,
but they are not delivering on the Agile mindset.

There is a difference between doing Agile and actually being Agile.
There are some questions you can ask yourself to see which team you belong to.

These questions are based on the
Declaration of Interdependence and the Agile Manifesto.

VALUES AND PRINCIPLES

Agile is a mindset, not a prescription. It is a holistic way to approach project management that goes far beyond tools, techniques, and templates. Agile project management requires a mindset that prioritizes agility at all times, through all phases, in all communications, and in all work.

Explore the following topics covered in the book:

The 12 Principles of the Manifesto Adapted for the Trifecta
The Values of the Agile Manifesto
The Declaration of Interdependence

METHODOLOGIES

I am sure you have heard of Scrum, Kanban, Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), Feature Driven Development (FDD), and Lean Software Development (LSD),

but have you ever experienced some lesser-known methods like eXtreme Programming (XP), Adaptive Project Framework (APF), Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM), Adaptive Software Development (ASD), Crystal, and even Scrumban?

TOOLS & TECHNIQUES

There are many different ways to go about the work in an Agile project. In this chapter of the book, you will find that there are tools you will use in each of the methodologies. I think you will find that many build on one another and are similar in many ways.
