Whether you’re a project manager working in a traditional Project Management environment following a certain methodology to get your projects done, or whether you’re in an Agile approach organisation where both Agile approaches (like Scrum) and traditional approaches are followed or a hybrid of both, this article will be of interest to you. It was written by a fellow Project Management Practitioner and blogger, Kevin Lonergan, who has used Agile and non-Agile approaches for managing projects for two decades and is a career long project management professional.

The article discusses the difference between Agile and project management and why, when using Agile, there are times when they are both required. It also shows why Agile is not a PM framework itself and highlights many of the specific reasons why this is.    It discusses the difference between product development methods (e.g. Agile based methods) and project management, and shows examples of why the two are not the same.

The article takes a frank view of the real world of projects in business and what is missing in some implementations of Agile.
