Frequently asked questions

Agile is an approach to project management that breaks down a large project into smaller, manageable time frames, called sprints. Teams can work on multiple parts of a project concurrently, which can make Agile more effective than traditional project management because resources can be used simultaneously and feedback is gathered and incorporated more frequently. In addition, Agile teams stay organized and efficient because they spend less time creating documentation or waiting for something to be completed.

If you're already in a project management role, you may be familiar with a more traditional management approach called Waterfall. Waterfall project management uses a linear process: Each phase of the project flows into the next one, like a waterfall. With this approach, one task is finished before another one is started. Agile project management is different because it is iterative, meaning the team is working on different parts of the project at the same time and project processes can be repeated many times throughout the project, incorporating feedback at every stage. Agile can be more effective than traditional project management because resources are used simultaneously in smaller time frames, called sprints. This iterative model means customer and stakeholder feedback is gathered more frequently and less time is spent creating documentation or waiting for something to be completed.
