A set of guiding principles and processes for owning a [[project]] through its [[project life cycle]]. Helps guide a [[project manager]] throughout the project with steps to take, tasks to complete, and principles for managing the project overall. Two types of methodologies:
### Linear approach
Previous phase or task has to be completed before the next can start.
- [[Waterfall]]
### Iterative approach
More flexible approach where some of the phases in tasks will overlap or happen at the same time that other tasks are being worked on.
- [[Agile]]
