ABSTRACT

One of the biggest differences between traditional or “waterfall” project management and Agile project management is the way projects are viewed.

The effort of planning, developing, and delivering of an Agile project is all wrapped up into one. Risks are expected to occur and occur. Again, that expectation is troubling to a traditional project manager, and exhilarating to the Agile project manager. Agile Project Management is an effective way to manage certain types of projects.

There is a multitude of information for those interested in learning more about Agile Project Management, particularly on-line, including certification.
