Compare Two Project Management Methods for Your Team

The team is split between two project management approaches and the loudest voice usually wins these. This describes each method's core assumptions in three sentences, then compares them on planning style, flexibility, visibility, and team-size fit. You choose on fit, not preference. For anyone setting up a new project.
