    Study Notes

    Agile Techniques and Approaches

    • Agile techniques and approaches manage disruptive technologies, scope changes, and project risk.

    Agile Practice

    • Agile approaches are better than traditional approaches if there is a significant degree of change associated with the project work.

    Understanding Agile

    • Agile can be viewed as an approach, a method, a practice, a technique, or a framework depending on the context of use.

    Kanban Board

    • A Kanban board helps visualize the flow of work, makes impediments easily visible, and allows flow to be managed by adjusting the work in process limits.

    Agile Principles

    • "Plan conservatively and deliver aggressively" is not a valid Agile principle.

    Agile Projects

    • Agile projects are not plan-driven and do not follow detailed plans, as this compromises the team's agility in responding to changes.

    Project Life Cycles

    • Exclusive use of a life cycle on all projects is not recommended, as each project finds a spot on the life cycle spectrum.

    Value Delivery

    • A successful project, product, or feature is the one that delivers value to the customer.

    Blended Approaches

    • Project teams sometimes blend various methods to achieve project objectives, such as using both Kanban and Agile approaches.
