This study investigates the influence of Agile practices on key project outcomes, focusing on performance, stakeholder satisfaction, and team dynamics. The primary objective is to explore the core principles and practices of Agile methodologies, such as Scrum, Kanban, and Lean, and how these frameworks are applied in diverse project settings. The research examines the direct impact of Agile practices on project performance, including time efficiency, cost management, and quality delivery. Additionally, the study assesses how Agile approaches enhance stakeholder satisfaction by fostering continuous communication, adapting to changes, and ensuring alignment with project goals. Furthermore, the analysis explores the effect of Agile practices on team dynamics, emphasizing collaboration, self-organization, and cross-functional teamwork. By synthesizing findings from case studies, interviews, and surveys across various industries, this study aims to provide valuable insights into how Agile methods influence overall project outcomes and contribute to improved performance, stronger stakeholder relationships, and enhanced team cohesion. The results are intended to guide organizations in effectively implementing Agile practices to maximize project success and foster sustainable growth in dynamic environments.
