Source: Agile Project Management, Second Edition, Jim Highsmith People & communication = successful projects Prioritize features & deliver working deliverables early Focus on what ‘can’ be done within time & budget (positive vs. haggling) Get feedback regularly and modify scope accordingly Value Individuals and interactions over processes and tools Working software [products] over comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration over contract negotiation Responding to change over following a plan

In order to work agile projects need: Co-located teams (collaborative teams) Daily meetings (daily scrums) Regular product owner involvement
