Myth buster: Agile

Agile project management is an iterative approach to delivering a project. Iterative or agile life cycles are composed of several iterations or incremental steps towards completion. Iterative approaches are frequently used in software development to promote adaptability, since the benefit of iteration is that you can adjust as you go along, rather than following a linear path. One of the aims of an agile or iterative approach is to release benefits throughout the process, rather than only at the end. At their core, agile projects should exhibit central values and behaviours of trust, flexibility, empowerment and collaboration.
