Abstract
A project management methodology is a set of policies and procedures that help project managers organize projects with maximum efficiency. Essentially, it is a structure or checklist that must be followed to help effectively manage the project process. Project management (PM) is critical to teams and organizations. However, to be truly effective, it is important to ensure that the needs of the team, project, organization and goals are properly captured and mapped into the methodology. In recent years, organizations have shifted from traditional waterfall strategies to more agile approaches.
However, the vast majority use a hybrid strategy, integrating relevant parts of each approach. With software development in such a fast-paced environment, traditional project management methods are no longer practical. This means IT professionals must find new ways to handle frequently changing development tasks. Seventeen software experts shared this idea and in 2001 focused on existing incremental development techniques and introduced agile project management concepts. The principles of agile, rapid, and collaborative software development are set out in the Agile Manifesto.
For many years, traditional methods like waterfall have provided a structured approach to project management and software development. Today, the waterfall model is not outdated, but the framework has evolved a lot. The new Introduced agile project management methodologies are a way to revolutionize software development, in stark contrast to the structured waterfall style. In this article, we examine the main characteristics of agile myths and the differences between their strategies, and examine the differences between waterfall, agile, and hybrid project management approaches.
