Project Management in Community Source Efforts

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interaction_management

Defines 2 types of processes (Mechanistic/Human-driven). We are, i think, in the midst of:

Human-driven
  • involve innovation
  • Depend on interaction
  • Dynamically shaped by the participants
There are numerous examples given, such as:

...
Running an election campaign
Solving a crime
Military action
Restoring an old building
  ....

The dynamics are different and the project management methodology should, if possible?, reflect those dynamics.
