BRM and Agile Working Together
Increasingly, BRMs encounter terminology related to Lean-Agile, and many often confuse business relationship management (BRM) strategies with Agile strategies. The two share enough similarities to cause confusion on which to use, if not both. While each methodology provides its own benefits, using both BRM and Agile together will bring the most success. It’s important to understand the benefits of using both, while properly defining them and explaining the differences.

However, for relationship-centered organizations, the question remains: does AI represent a threat to the human touch that is essential to building and maintaining strong connections with clients, stakeholders, and partners? The answer is no.
