I think the (unpopular) reality here is that there just really isn’t a lot of traction for one-size-fits-all project management. Methodology and even terminology has too much marketing budget attached to it to be trusted.
There are some general guidelines, there is some amount of this that can be taught (not enough to sell a course or certificate), but mostly project management outcomes are dominated by the terms of understanding the domain in detail and the people involved as holistic human beings.
Paul Graham said that the management of hackers for someone who isn’t a hacker can be summed up as “give up”.
Don’t shoot the messenger please, but I agree with pg.

On the contrary, I'd think that position would be popular with us hackers because it's saying what we want to hear, about how special we are. For that reason alone, I'm not sure I buy it.
