This groundbreaking approach to project management is growing popularity. First emerging as a method of development in the software development space, Agile Methodologies are now converted to fit operations in a variety of other industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"The-4-Values-of-Agile\">The 4 Values of Agile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Agile Methodology is built on four basic values, which are outlined in the <a href=\"http:\/\/agilemanifesto.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Agile Manifesto<\/a>, first published in 2001. These values act as overarching principles, to which each Agile team should adhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><p>\u201cIndividuals and interactions over processes and tools<\/p><\/li><li><p>Working software over comprehensive documentation<\/p><\/li><li><p>Customer collaboration over contract negotiation<\/p><\/li><li><p>Responding to change over following a plan\u201d<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The four values demonstrate the importance of functionality over structure. Ultimately, each team member, each project, and each client will operate differently. Thus, Agile harnesses strengths for improved results, instead of relying on preset processes to complete work.<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"The-12-Principles-of-Agile\">The 12 Principles of Agile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to four values of Agile, there are also 12 principles every Agile team member \u2013 especially the project manager \u2013 should keep in mind. These are also outlined in the <a href=\"http:\/\/agilemanifesto.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Agile Manifesto<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><p>Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.<\/p><\/li><li><p>Welcome changing requirements, even late in development.

Agile project management relies on operations built on flexibility. Agile Methodologies approach project delivery though incremental progress. Instead of completing a deliverable all at once, teams deliver aspects of the project as they\u2019re completed, each one building on the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The structure of Agile project management was created to facilitate and easily adapt to change. Think back to a past project in which you were a manager or team member. It\u2019s likely that project, like most, encountered unexpected impediments. A client changed their mind, a team member resigned, or a timeline was no longer viable. Whatever the challenge you faced, it probably required your team to reconfigure the entire project plan, causing a loss in both time and effort. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an effort to plan without a structure so rigid changes can\u2019t be made, Agile projects operate on a \u201csprint\u201d or \u201citeration\u201d schedule. Sprints are generally two to four-week periods during which Agile teams break down projects into small increments, with team members committing to complete goals before the sprint begins. Those iterations are then put through design, testing, and quality assurance, all during the confines of the sprint. As small pieces of a project are completed, they are delivered to the client or, in the case of software development, launched. And a next portion is released in the next sprint, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the greatest benefits of Agile project management is the continuous release of deliverables to the clients. Each completed portion of the project can be easily tested, and if issues arise, they\u2019re quickly addressed. Because you\u2019re continuously testing and building upon the foundation of the project, your team is able to avoid large-scale problems that are common with projects launched all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuous release of project components also facilitates better communication between teams and their clients. With each portion of the project being approved by the client as it\u2019s launched, feedback can be provided incrementally, too. Clients are likely to be pleased with the final project since they\u2019ve provided input every step of the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, Agile project management has a built-in component for process improvement, too. Each sprint ends with a retrospective meeting, in which team members outline what they believe they did well and what they believe could be improved in the next sprint. This means, in an ideal world, each sprint improves the team and their processes until every project is completed efficiently and successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"What-is-Agile-Software-Development\">What is Agile Software Development?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Agile software development is the application of <a href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/agile-fundamentals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Agile Methodologies<\/a> to the creation, management, and launch of software solutions. Agile was designed specifically for the software development space, so this application is where it has true impact. Essentially, Agile project managers in the software development space take all the processes outlined above and apply them to their development teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because Agile project management allows teams to respond quickly to market developments and the needs of their clients, it\u2019s ideally suited for software development. And since Agile projects are developed in iterations that build on one another, software developers benefit from regular testing of each deliverable both prior to and after launch. When applied to software development, Agile promotes short feedback loops and constant evolution of a product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to truly master Agile project management, you should consider earning the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> certification. This demonstrates to employers and teams alike that you have a robust understanding of Agile Methodologies and how to effectively apply those principles to project management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Passing the exam is a big achievement, so to ensure you\u2019re adequately prepared before you being the process, it\u2019s wise to <a href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/pmi-acp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">choose a PMI R.E.P. training partner<\/a>. The right training partner will <a href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/scrum-methodology-training\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">provide courses<\/a> to help you learn how to apply Agile principles to your daily project management tasks. With this knowledge, you\u2019ll not only be able to earn your certification, but you\u2019ll be prepared to run Agile projects with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To learn more, explore this <a href=\"http:\/\/learn.projectmanagementacademy.net\/ultimate-guide-to-agile\">comprehensive guide on Agile Methodologies<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Studying for the PMP Exam?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/free-pmp-questions\" style=\"border-radius:2px;background-color:#366194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMP Practice Questions<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>Upcoming PMP Certification Training &#8211; Live &amp; Online Classes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><table class=\"table table-striped table-bordered table-responsive-sm font-md mt-5 mb-0 d-none d-md-table\"><tr><td>Name<\/td><td>Date<\/td><td>Place<\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><\/table>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those that operate in the project management space, you\u2019ve likely heard a lot about Agile Methodologies.
