5 Agile Mistakes You Might Be Making (& How to Stop)

Agile project management is gaining popularity, but many companies are not seeing the desired outcomes because they are making mistakes during implementation. One of the biggest mistakes is trying to run too quickly without proper training and understanding of the changes. Another mistake is not getting leadership buy-in, leading to confusion about roles and responsibilities. Companies also tend to put too many people on their Agile teams, making decision-making and collaboration difficult. Trying to do too much in sprints and relying on shoulder tapping can also negatively impact productivity. Solutions include training team members properly, getting leadership buy-in, understanding the ideal team size, accurately assessing team capacity, and democratizing decision-making within teams.
