CAPM Practice Question

Predictive, plan-based approaches rely on extensive up-front planning, detailed documentation, and centralized control. A hierarchical (often functional) structure has many management layers, well-defined authority lines, and formal decision-making procedures-characteristics that align with the control and documentation needs of a predictive life cycle. In contrast, flat, self-organizing, or loosely coupled network structures favor adaptive or agile methods because they encourage distributed authority and rapid change.
