Description
Introduction
Agile and PMP (Project Management Professional) represent two prominent approaches to managing projects, each with distinct methodologies, processes, and goals. Agile emphasizes flexibility, collaboration, and delivering iterative, incremental value to customers, while PMP, guided by the Project Management Institute (PMI), follows a structured and process-oriented approach to managing projects. Agile and PMP can complement each other, as project managers often use both methods depending on the project requirements and organizational context. Integrating Agile with PMP practices allows project managers to manage the complexity of large projects while maintaining flexibility to adapt to change and focus on delivering value.
