"I use many project management methodologies. Some of these include Agile, Scrum, Six Sigma, and Kanban. During the intake of each project, I determine the desired outcomes and tasks required to manage the project successfully. Part of my intake process is also to determine which methodology would be best for that particular project. I find it's essential to be flexible in your approach to project management as each project is unique and needs a different type of support."
