The mental model of nimble project management
Nimble project management is based on the mental model that states all projects are nonlinear complex adaptive systems. As a result, the nimble project manager would approach a project making the following assumptions:
1) It’s appropriate to invest the time upfront to understand the goal of the project without needing to plan every step along the way.
2) Nothing makes up for, or replaces, good people—staffing is everything.
3) It’s imperative to create a project structure that facilitates good communication—opportunities need to be communicated as well as risks.
4) Nimbleness requires knowing when a situation needs to be controlled and when it needs time to evolve.
5) All projects are unique in some way. Investing the time upfront to understand the uniqueness helps establish the initial area of order.
