by Sanjiv Augustine, Arlen Bankston

Abstract

As agile project delivery methods have entered the mainstream, the burning managerial question has shifted from whether to adopt them to how. Switching to agile often brings swift and dramatic change, but ensuring that this transition is positive in nature requires an informed, pragmatic approach. This Executive Report by Sanjiv Augustine and Arlen Bankston presents a roadmap that distills and elevates six core steps for migrating from plan-driven management (PDM) to agile project management (APM) and illustrates how they're manifested in successful projects today.
