| Summary: | This paper aims to provide a framework for guiding organizations toward Agile practices for project management. Through a case study analysis conducted in an information technology company, the paper aims to explore the interplay between current organization structure and project management approaches, the set of competencies, and the cultural change required for a transition toward Agile transformation. The paper provides a framework comprising four main blocks necessary for guiding organizations toward Agile practices for successful project management. The framework proposed demonstrates that for organizations to be nimble and to improve teamwork performance, it is necessary to undertake a set of changes in culture, competencies, structure, and approaches. The findings highlight the importance of a structured approach to Agile transformation, with particular emphasis on top management support and continuous learning. By formalizing Agile initiatives through structured approaches and continuous engagement, organizations can foster a shared sense of purpose among team members, ensuring sustained commitment and facilitating smoother transitions. |
