SCRUM Project, Part 6: Evaluating Agile Methods

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, read Module 1 (Business Leadership Transition) in Chapter 12 of your textbook.

Your organization is struggling with its projects. Some projects completely fail to provide quality solutions. Others take long to complete, often require constant modifications that were not originally part of the requirements, and cost more money than initially budgeted. The organization is looking for better ways to bring these projects under control and to ensure higher probability of success and quality products.

Using your new knowledge and skills in Agile project management methods, along with any feedback you received from your peers in the Team Discussion this week, create a PowerPoint video presentation to upper management of your organization. The video presentation should exhibit your own evaluation of Agile methods and how they could be used to turn the organizations projects around. The goal of the video presentation is to influence upper management decision makers to transition to Agile project management in the organization.

Your video presentation should be 5-9 minutes in length and should:

• Describe the main characteristics of Agile methods
• Differentiate between Agile methods and traditional waterfall methods
• Explain best practices for applying Agile methods to project management
