48 Agile working methods Agile Project Management Less is more approach and build slowly Constant checking as you go against business requirements Test assumptions what we (as in programmers) think works well may not work for the end user New ways of working means the thinking of your key staff has to change. Still need to have an overall plan of what you are trying to achieve and by when, even when working in an agile way. 48
