4) Some of the adaptive approaches to developing systems (like agile) are becoming more popular. Are they better or more appropriate than prescriptive approaches in most cases? Why or Why not?

Adaptive approaches are usually better than prescriptive approaches because they offer more flexibility in the development of the project. This approach allows for team members to share their advances, and for updates and changes to be made to the project. Furthermore, the adaptive approach is especially useful in an environment where the technology is frequently changing and the requirements of a project can change at any moment, and the project need to be improved and adjusted accordingly.

  1. I absolutely believe in a philosophy of intelligent risk-taking, to be sparing with the application of zero-tolerance philosophy (which is, sometimes, exactly what is needed). Employees should be encouraged to imagine, to contemplate, to dream. By default, any project is going to have certain boundaries, and unwavering constraints. As such, I believe it is critical to be flexible in other matters, as is appropriate, and supportive to the generation of the best ideas for conducting and managing and completing any project. Agile, but realistic, and responsible.
