The AgilePM lifecycle typically includes Pre-Project, Feasibility, Foundations, Evolutionary Development/Realization, Deployment, and Post-Project (benefits). Feasibility is designed as a lightweight, optional phase to confirm there is a sensible case to proceed before deeper investment. In some contexts-when viability is already established, or scope and constraints are straightforward-Feasibility may be skipped or greatly abbreviated, moving directly to Foundations, where the approach, governance, and baselines are established. By contrast, Foundations is expected for alignment and control, and Realization (timeboxed delivery) is where the solution is built; these are not optional if you are proceeding with delivery. Thus, Feasibility is the optional phase.

The responsibility of the Business Ambassador in AgilePM is to provide day-to-day detail of the requirements during Timeboxes. This role involves representing the interests of the business within the project team, ensuring that the evolving product meets the business needs. The Business Ambassador works closely with the development team to clarify requirements, provide feedback, and make decisions promptly to keep the project on track.

* Autonomy, Mastery, and Purpose: As outlined by Daniel Pink, these three factors drive motivation in knowledge work, which relies on creativity and engagement. Agile practices support autonomy through self-organizing teams, mastery through continuous learning, and purpose through shared goals.
* Other Options: These reflect traditional or outdated models of motivation and do not align with Pink's framework.
