Research Paper Description: Agile Methodology in Project Management This document is a research paper outline or proposal titled "Investigating Effective Change to agile transformation and adoption, and associated remedies in Project management: A Focus on Nokia." It focuses on the benefits, necessity, process, and challenges of transitioning from traditional Project Management (PM) models like Waterfall to Agile methodology. Key Content Areas: Introduction and Motivation: Agile methodology has gained popularity in organizational PM due to customer demand, evolving organizational challenges, and increasing technicality. Organizations adopted Agile as a survival strategy to improve workplace practices, communication, cooperation, decision-making, and customer satisfaction. Research Problem: Traditional PM models, specifically the Waterfall paradigm, proved unfeasible for many competitive projects in democratic organizations. The need for flexibility, communication, and continuous market assessment called for the shift to Agile. Literature Review: Agile Definition: A PM technique that breaks the whole project process into several distinct steps. Principles: Focuses on collaborative engagement, solutions, and stems from the "Agile Manifesto" principles, including interactions, working software, customer engagement, and response to change. Needs for Migration: Includes flexibility (due to shortcomings of traditional models), customer satisfaction (ensuring deliverables have value and relevance), project control (through sprints/iterations), and scalability (determining costs and time). Proposed Research (Focus on Nokia): Methodology: Qualitative research methodology targeting 50 participants working in Nokia company, using stratified sampling. Objective (PMGT 699 Applied Project): To uncover the benefits of Scrum methodology in Nokia PM and determine if the shift from waterfall to agile is ideal for the company. Overall Aim (GRAD 699): To uncover strategies for the adoption and effective implementation of Agile methodology. The project will specifically uncover problems Nokia overcame during its shift from Waterfall to Agile. Data: Plans to collect both qualitative (questionnaires, observations, organization operations) and quantitative (interviews, surveys, document review) data.
