Agile has become a hot topic in project management. Many top businesses around the world are interested in scaling Agile across entire organizations. But despite its recent surge in popularity,\u00a0Agile is far from a new concept<\/a>\u00a0in project management. Officially created in 2001, Agile\u2019s origins go back multiple decades and have been used to help teams succeed in fast-paced jobs where the nature of work is constantly changing.<\/p>\n

Traditionally, the Agile method was implemented at the team level. Groups would custom tailor an Agile system that helped them meet their goals and objectives. This worked well because it gave teams more autonomy and flexibility. They developed their own Agile systems, independent of their peers, which means that different departments had their own procedures for good project management practices. In other words, the Agile method typically operated in silos and wasn\u2019t part of a greater project management system.<\/p>\n

Since then, Agile has become an incredibly popular way to manage projects. As such, a number of enterprise-level organizations have looked at scaling Agile across their entire company. But how would an approach that enhances productivity at the team level be applied across an organization? And would it even be effective at improving corporate performance?<\/p>\n

In short, yes, it\u2019s possible to scale Agile across an organization. But it does come with its own set of challenges that one must consider when making the switch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
