Individuals and interactions over processes and tools<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Companies need to value people \u2014 and their knowledge, skills, and experience \u2014 over strict processes and tools. It\u2019s people that drive innovation within projects. An excellent Agile project management tool should be flexible enough to respond to their ideas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Putting tools or processes first limits the opportunity for continuous improvement and for team members to build workflows that fit their style. The ability to customize tools to suit individuals\u2019 needs can make for greater efficiency in delivering work.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It\u2019s also people, rather than processes or tools, who respond to change. Whether that\u2019s changing customer requirements or a change to the business environment, people need flexibility in their tools so they can pivot effectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As a Work OS, monday.com has all the building blocks you need to build workflows to suit your Agile team and project, which means you\u2019re not forced into a structure that doesn\u2019t work.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Drag-and-drop functionality in monday.com\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Drag-and-Drop.png\" alt=\"Screenshot showing ability to drag-and-drop columns in monday.com boards\" width=\"853\" height=\"580\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The drag-and-drop functionality and low-code app builder mean it\u2019s easy to change your processes to support your people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>And with monday.com\u2019s many boards and 8 different views to visualize information, your team can organize tasks in a way that works for them while still maintaining centralized data.<\/p>\r\n<a class=\"cta-button blue-button\" aria-label=\"Try monday dev\" href=\"https:\/\/auth.monday.com\/p\/software\/users\/sign_up_new?origin=hp_fullbg_page_header#soft_signup_from_step\" target=\"_self\">Try monday dev<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Prefer a Kanban board?

Customer collaboration over contract negotiation<\/h3>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Unlike Waterfall project management, where the entire scope of the project is agreed upon initially, Agile projects deliver work in iterations throughout the life cycle of the project.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Agile development means it\u2019s not a one-and-done for business stakeholders. They need to act as partners for the project\u2019s duration, offering guidance and feedback as deliverables are produced and preparing the business for implementation.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>To maximize the value of this, well, value, tools need to enable effective team communication options with appropriate access and real-time updates.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Timely and engaging reporting that clearly shows project progress is also important for transparency, keeping everyone on the same page, and building trust.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>monday.com helps businesses live this value with its stellar in-platform collaboration options.

Working software over comprehensive documentation<\/h3>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Traditionally, software development required extensive <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link \" title=\"technical specification\" href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/rnd\/technical-specification\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">technical specification<\/a> documentation to be produced before a single line of code was even written.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>With Agile project management \u2014 where software is developed by iteration \u2014 working software is the measure of success, not thorough documentation.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>That\u2019s not to say that documentation isn\u2019t valued.

This test-and-adjust approach is flexible, delivers value earlier, and leads to greater customer satisfaction than a build where the specification is nailed down early and can\u2019t be changed.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>This value is all about getting the right information to the right people at the right time.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>Whether that\u2019s user stories to developers, bug tracking information from testers, or feedback from stakeholders, you need an <a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/rnd\/software-development-tools\/\">Agile software tool<\/a> that can make that happen.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p>We\u2019ve already shown how monday.com makes collaboration between people easy.
