The senior management in your organization has recently heard about Agile as a new way of managing projects and is asking for your advice on whether
Agile would be the right approach for the next systems implementation. What would be the best advice you can give them?

Y A 2 | We should use an Agile suitability questionnaire to assess the culture of the organization, the skill sets of employees, and the project itself to
determine whether Agile would be the right approach.

B Because the organization does not have any experience with Agile it would be best to hire an independent Agile coach who can assess whether
Agile will be the right fit based on the culture, team skills, and nature of the project.
