PRINCE2 Agile Training FAQs
-
Can you combine project management and Agile working without losing the benefits of Agile?
Yes! Project management at its best is a facilitator and enabler of your chosen delivery approach. It should not limit or disable your solution. PRINCE2 Agile is about tailoring PRINCE2 to enable agile working to be successful in a project environment. It does not limit agile nor does it suggest that your agile solution needs to change in any way. PRINCE2 Agile adds the benefits of great governance without losing the benefits of great delivery.
-
Isn’t PRINCE2 waterfall based or used only with waterfall-based projects?
No! PRINCE2 has a long and very successful history of enabling waterfall-based solutions and approaches. However, it is not itself a waterfall nor is it limited in any way to waterfall working. PRINCE2 can support any delivery approach. PRINCE2 Agile describes it doing that for agile working.
-
What is the point of combining PRINCE2 and Agile?
The most successful agile frameworks describe small delivery teams working in a collaborative manner and delivering little and often. They are discovery based and adaptive. They favour customers being represented by a single individual (product owner) and business value being the driver for work selected and delivered. On a small scale they are all you need to succeed.
However, as the scale grows… multiple customers, multiple teams, larger products and broader goals and objectives… they do not offer any way of managing these challenges. This is the environment that PRINCE2 was built for. A way of working that decides what projects to do, sets up the environment for success, regularly checks that a business justification for the work exists and continues, escalates significant issues, reports progress to senior management and coordinates multiple teams working.
Bring both together with a strong emphasis on “protect the delivery approach from anything that will make it less effective or efficient” and you can have the best of both worlds… Demonstrable governance and effective delivery.
