Scrum has become the key to the project world, taking the lead among frameworks/methodologies. The advantage is significant - regardless of the company's size, agile methods outperform waterfall methods.
Proper implementation of agility can indicate the growing maturity of companies conducting project activities. So when do we rely on waterfall methodologies? When we have to. For example, in situations requiring longer decision-making paths or established action schemes.
Prince2 is dead, long live Waterfall! Only 7% of respondents from large companies and 2% from very large ones choose the very popular Prince2 methodology in the public sector. With other variants of Waterfall, it's more stable, as they remain on the podium, albeit in the last place. Hybrid solutions, combining formal organizational requirements with elements of team agility, are increasingly used.
Scrum, while fashionable, is not the answer to all project needs. The initial enthusiasm has somewhat waned, and projects that cannot adapt to the realities of this methodology may often lead us into the trap of "Scrum-but" and do more harm than good.
Let's approach everything with common sense. Totalizator Sportowy's experience shows that it's worth structuring a project according to internal regulations, thereby ensuring reporting in line with best practices. At the same time, let's leave Project Managers the freedom to choose the methodology which, according to their knowledge and experience, best responds to the needs and specifics of the project being conducted.
Agility makes sense and brings real value, but only when it is implemented thoughtfully and tailored to the actual needs of teams and the organization.
