Beschreibung
Inhalt

A project is defined by cost, time, and the desired output. That output may or may not become an outcome and increase the profit or the likelihood of achieving the goals. Whilst everyone agrees that greater Agility is essential to adapt the project outcome to changes in requirements, when looking at Agile ‘successes’ we need to accept that Agile comes at a cost, and the cost should justify the benefits, rather than Agile becoming the focus. This book is about combining project management and product development practices to ensure successful delivery.
