What is Balanced-Agile?

Balanced-Agile is a collection of best practices collected from both the classic and agile world of project management.  These hybrid hacks combine the best elements of traditional project management methodologies, such as Waterfall, with the flexibility and adaptiveness of Agile and Lean principles.

Why would agile organizations need Balanced-Agile?

Balanced-Agile offers an effective solution for organizations that have encountered difficulties in fully transitioning to agile methodologies like SAFe or Scrum, discovering that these methods do not suit all projects. As a hybrid approach, Balanced-provides a flexible framework that can be adapted to a variety of project types and complexities. This method helps organizations refine and optimize their project management strategies to better meet their unique needs and challenges.

Balanced-Agile provides these organizations with a solution that still feels familiar and structured, integrating agile philosophies and techniques seamlessly into a classically inspired process. This hybrid model allows them to maintain control while becoming more responsive to changes, making it easier to innovate and stay competitive in dynamic environments.
