Hybrid Revisited

Are you thinking of adopting agile or hybrid methodologies for your projects? If so, you might be wondering what hybrid means and how to make it work for you. I wrote a blog post some time ago now (hereπŸ™‚) on the importance of defining your Hybrid approach so that team members are clear on expectations.

Hybrid is not a one-size-fits-all solution so you need to find the right mix of practices, processes, and tools for your project.

It’s fascinating to see that over over 50% of projects are now governed using a hybrid approach according to project management journal.

Also Hybrid projects deliver on par with traditional or agile approaches in terms of budget, schedule and scope/quality according to the same article here.

Fascinating to see the spread across different sectors using predictive(waterfall), agile and hybrid approaches to projects:
