On a traditional project, Project Managers may be actively involved in directing work and telling their team what needs to be done – a style often referred to as “command and control”. Agile is different. Let’s take as example an Agile methodology like AgilePM: in the early stages, the agile Project Manager creates a high level plan, based on outline requirements, and a high level view of the solution to be created. From that point onwards the end project is created iteratively and incrementally, with each increment building on the output of increments preceding it.
