Master Agile Project Management-From Fundamentals to Remote Team Leadership!

If you're looking to optimize workflows, adapt to changing requirements, and deliver projects faster, Agile Essentials You Always Wanted to Know (2nd Edition) is your complete guide to understanding and implementing Agile. Co-authored by Kalpesh Ashar (MBA, CSM, PMI-ACP, with more than 21 years of global experience) and Sandeep Rana (a product and program management professional who has worked with Apollo Global Management, PayU, Safran, and HSBC), the book balances clear theory with real-world insights.

The book progresses systematically from the Agile Manifesto to planning, execution, tracking, reporting, and leading teams. What sets this edition apart is the NEW Chapter 7: Agile in Remote Teams, which addresses the realities of hybrid work, distributed collaboration, accountability in virtual environments, and the need to maintain team trust and psychological safety. Additionally, two complete case studies-including building a research access platform with Scrumban-provide practical application of key concepts.
