In the project management and software development fields, Agile project management<\/a> principles realized and practiced.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Companies are making huge investments in Agile and DevOps tools and training. <\/span><\/p>\n

The benefits of Agile are well known. Agile helps with speedy roll-outs, continuous improvement, flexibility and reacting to market or customer changes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most people don’t know the Agiles guiding principles.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Agile Manifesto<\/a> for Agile Software Development lists 12 core principles\u00a0for Agile project management. <\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, we take a closer look at those 12 principles and explain what they mean in practice.<\/span><\/p>\n

12 rules of Agile project management principles<\/strong>\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

The 12 rules of Agile project management principles are based on the Agile manifesto published by the Agile working group in February 2001.<\/span><\/p>\n

1-Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Please customers through early and continuous software delivery. This is the first and most important rule of Agile project management principles.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the major focuses of Agile project management is customer satisfaction through early and continuous delivery. <\/span><\/p>\n

In simple terms, this means delivering solutions that solve problems for customers and delight them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the feedback from the customer, improve the product and make the customer even happier.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"WBS<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

2-Welcome changing requirements<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Welcome and utilize change for customers’ competitive advantage<\/span><\/p>\n

Agile also involves welcoming and harnessing change, when relevant, in order to provide superior customer satisfaction and advantage. <\/span><\/p>\n

As Sarmad Hasan says in a recent blog post, Agile’s advantage over other methodologies is the ability to make changes – even late in the development process – to improve the end result.<\/span><\/p>\n

3-Deliver working software frequently<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Deliver working software frequently, with shorter time scales, preferably every 4 to 6 weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

A key aim of the Agile approach in project management is to shorten the time between planning and delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is achieved by delivering working software on a regular and frequent basis. <\/span><\/p>\n

This means the team should strive to deliver a working product every 4 or six weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

These 4 to 6 weeks time frames are called sprints and durations of sprints should be consistent and not change by more than a week or two.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4-Business people and developers must work\u00a0together<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Promote close day-to-day collaboration between business managers and developers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Agile approach works best when business people and developers work closely together. <\/span><\/p>\n

This means that managers and the technical team should inhabit the same spaces and spend time together. <\/span><\/p>\n

Where this is not practical, communication software and other technology solutions should be used to facilitate close collaboration.<\/span><\/p>\n

5-Build projects around motivated individuals<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Build projects around team members who are motivated, enthusiastic and love what they do.<\/span><\/p>\n

Agile project management is intended to remove the need for micromanagement. <\/span><\/p>\n

To achieve this, projects should be built around team members who are motivated, trustworthy and reliable. <\/span><\/p>\n

A defining feature of Agile projects is self-directed teams, although sufficient support should be provided to the team during each development cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n

6- The face-to-face conversation is a must<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Communication is most efficient when it takes place when everybody is in the room.<\/span><\/p>\n

Due to the globalization of development teams, in practice providing virtual communication tools can help remote teams.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Although modern communication software and tools have enabled remote workers to function within project teams, face-to-face communication remains the most efficient method. <\/span><\/p>\n

People working under one roof and speaking is ideal to speed up communication and clarify any misunderstandings, but not always practical.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

7-Working product is the primary measure of progress<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

The primary measure of Agile project progress is working product or service.<\/span><\/p>\n

A working prototype, which performs as it should, is the single most important metric for Agile project success. <\/span><\/p>\n

Indeed, in the absence of a working product, all other metrics don’t mean much. <\/span><\/p>\n

Once a working prototype is in place, further progress can be measured by improvements made to better the product.<\/span><\/p>\n

8-Agile processes promote sustainable development<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your project development team should be able to stay focus and work under conditions which are sustainable.<\/span><\/p>\n

Project teams often run into problems when the development is not sustainable.<\/span><\/p>\n

This will lead to a lack of productivity caused by burnout from individuals being overworked. <\/span><\/p>\n

For optimal performance, teams should establish a sustainable pace and then keep to it as much as possible. <\/span><\/p>\n

The best pace will vary from team to team but should balance both the quantity and quality of work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Work-life balance is important and without it, product teams will lose drive, focus, and motivation to achieve their best.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

9-Continuous attention to technical excellence<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Attention should be paid to quality design and technical excellence.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is done by putting the customer first. Throughout the design and development cycle, the Agile team should keep the customer’s interest as their primary focus.<\/span><\/p>\n

This means project teams should continuously refine and improve their technical capability. <\/span><\/p>\n

Anytime anything could be made simpler it should be pursued.\u00a0 Each iteration of the product should be better than the last.<\/span><\/p>\n

10- Keep things simple Stupid (K.T.S.S)<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Keep things simple and only do the things that really matter<\/span><\/p>\n

A cornerstone of Agility is the desire to keep things as simple as possible and avoid unnecessary complications. <\/span><\/p>\n

As Kate Swanberg points out in a\u00a0blog post for Hubspot<\/a>, this means minimizing the amount of time that is spent on things that do not really matter, so that projects complete on time.<\/span><\/p>\n

11-self-organizing teams are the most productive and efficient<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Self-organizing teams lead to the best design, development process and product.<\/span><\/p>\n

While Agile projects may or may not have a project manager, the project team should be self-organized and self-directed as much as possible. <\/span><\/p>\n

This means they will find their own solutions to problems and use their own ideas to innovate. <\/span><\/p>\n

The manager or the scrum master should only interfere if things go off course. I should point out that frequent interventions by the manager are indicative of wider issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

12-Reflect on how\u00a0to become more effective as a team<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Inspection, reflection, and adaptation are the keys to product success.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inspection and reflection are vital components of the Agile approach. <\/span><\/p>\n

On a regular basis, the project team should take the time to look into the work they have accomplished so far, and consider how they can make improvements. <\/span><\/p>\n

From there, it is essential that there is a willingness to adapt and adjust in order to make the necessary changes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/span><\/h3>\n

If you are not using Agile yet, you should. Agile project management principles are a set of easy rule anybody can follow and achieve success in managing projects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Agile was written by software engineers for software engineers, but over the years it has proven its value in other disciplines.<\/span><\/p>\n
