2. Stick to Short Project Cycles
3. Use the Right Tool

6. Define Your Stages

1. Assemble the Right Team
An inefficient team will lead to the inefficient implementation of Agile. Assembling the right team is the first big hurdle to overcome.

2. Stick to Short Project Cycles
It is tricky to define objectives, limit them for short project cycles, but the short period of time between cycles allows for more Agile development as a whole.

3. Use the Right Tool
You can reap the benefits of Agile by using a suitable tool for project management. The Kanban board and today’s cloud-based Kanban software are worth looking into.

4. Manage Your Backlog
While backlog is great for keeping track of the future tasks that still need to be done, having a long backlog is counterproductive.

5. Value Matters
Speaking of prioritizing tasks, you also want to evaluate each task to stay agile. Value matters, especially when you have a big, complex project to manage.

6. Define Your Stages
You need clear definitions of your stages for Agile to work as intended. Without these definitions, it is nearly impossible to maintain a consistent rhythm over a longer period of time.

“Done” needs to have a clear definition. At what point can a task be considered completed? What does Done really mean in different parts of the project? The same definition is also needed for every stage in your workflow, including To-Do.
