M01 - Defining programme management and AgilePgM 2/30 | 13/182

 A philosophy and a mindset
 Flexibility, agility, adaptability, incremental delivery,
iterative cycle, fast and constant feedback, engagement
 Working closely and constantly with customer throughout
 Ensuring final solution actually meets business needs
 Focusing on business value/outcome NOT strictly project plan/output
 Focusing on value delivery NOT on fixed product definition
 Deferring decisions about details as late as possible
 No “big design up front” (BDUF), rather Enough Design Up Front (EDUF)
“If a process is too unpredictable or too complicated for the planned, (predictive)
approach, then the empirical approach (measure and adapt) is the method of choice“
Ken Schwaber
14M01 - Defining programme management and AgilePgM 3/30 | 14/182

“We are uncovering better ways of developing software by
doing it and helping others do it”
Through this work we have come to value
Agile
(empirical/adaptive process control model)
Traditional
(defined/deterministic process control model)
People and Interactions over Processes and Tools
Working Software over Comprehensive Documentation
Customer Collaboration over Contract Negotiation
Responding to Change over Following a Plan
While there is value in the items on the right; we value the items on the left more.
(but Agile is not just about delivering software, it applies to all types of project)

 Simple (straightforward)
 Everything is known
 Complicated
 More is known than unknown
 Complex
 More is unknown than known
 Chaotic (unpredictable)
