Being first developed for the manufacturing industry, this project management methodology caught on in other industries, including the software development industry by replacing traditional methods of project management.

We tried to figure out what is the difference between Agile and the Waterfall method, how the Agile best practices look like, and how businesses become Agile. All of this is described in our new article. 

Looking ahead, it can be theorized that even if you have never applied the Agile methodology for managing project teams and product development, it would not be an obstacle for you to start applying it.

What is Agile? This is an approach to project management according to which all bureaucratic aspects are cut off. The focus is on improving the product quality and its customer value. The core feature of Agile is a human-oriented approach that means that people matter: not only the project manager influences the work process but all project team members contribute to common business within the daily work and meetings. 

There is an Agile Manifesto that defines 4 values and 12 principles of the Agile methodology, according to which it becomes possible to apply these methods in companies no matter what mindset, culture or work rules are set there.
