Agile Project Management: The Definitive Beginner’s Guide to Learning Agile Project Management and Understanding Methodologies for Quality Control
What can help you build a house, code software, draft a project, or even renovate your business?A whiteboard, a pad of sticky notes......and the knowledge of how to use them, of course.
Agile project management is the solution people have been looking for.
Born out of sheer need nearly two decades ago, agile project management has grown and expanded past the borders of its software development beginnings. These days, companies in marketing, medicine, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and even governmental institutions employ agile practices to help their processes, to deliver faster, and to be better at everything they do.
To skeptics, agile project management may very well sound like a utopian dream — but in fact, it is the complete opposite of that. Agile project management comes to oppose idealistic views on how projects should be planned. It comes to help you embrace change at its true value and power. It comes to help you deliver better, faster, more qualitative products.
Regardless of what industry you work in, you will find genuine value in agile project management — precisely because it is an approach so flexible and so broad that you simply cannot ignore it these days.
