Abstract

Proper project management is a constant need faced by most organizations worldwide. There is a growing focus on combining PMBOK practices with agile principles, creating a hybrid approach that leverages the best of both worlds. In this sense this paper proposes to deepen and combine the most effective elements of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®) with the agile approach to project management. This is done taking into account that an adequate project management will allow aligning the organization's objectives and generating value for all parties involved. As a result, it is expected to obtain optimal conclusions from the development of the project and achieve the best results from the application of AGILE+ PMBOK® best practices. This will serve as a proposal for other organizations in the sector to continue evolving their management practices.
