Since every project or program requires certain level of predictability and adaptability, hybrid project management methodology allows you to select various practices from multiple sequential, agile and lean approaches that fits in your project environment. As per my experience, hybrid approach provides you more flexibility and creates a balance between the predictive and adaptive world as a single methodology sometimes becomes prescriptive in nature. Whether it is about workplace culture, skills, operations or project management, hybrid approach brings more options to blend various techniques based on the nature, complexity, size and risk involved in the projects, and lets you manage your projects more pragmatically and effectively. The greatest value of adopting hybrid project management methodology in the current climate is sustainability which makes it more powerful by complementing the existing project management approaches.
