The Evolution of Project Management in a Scaled Agile Environment

Book excerpt: Over the last few decades, agile delivery methods have been increasing in popularity which has led to scaled agile models that encompass an entire organization. On the surface, these models do not look like they have project management functions or roles. Four key hypotheses will be proposed and explored for how project management concepts, competencies and principles are still needed in scaled agile models and how they need to evolve.
