PRINCE2 Agile


Today’s Challenges


What does “Agile” mean?

The Agile Manifesto (2001) comes closest to a single definition – “it was created as an alternative to ‘waterfall’ processes”

• Generic description of a style of working

• Flexibility• Working closely with customer

throughout• Ensuring final solution actually

meets business need• Deferring decisions about detail as

late as possible


Agile Manifesto (2001)Agile v Traditional

People and Interactions Over Processes and Tools

Working Solutions Over Comprehensive Documentation

Customer Collaboration Over Contract Negotiation

Responding to Change Over Following a Plan

There is value in the items in the right-hand column but in Agile we value the left-hand column more

Seven Project Management Principles


Transitioning to Agile• Agile is an enabler that helps solves

problems and leverage opportunities• Create a baseline before starting the

journey• There are distinctly different types of

success on a project:

– The success of the Business Case

– The success of the project

– The success of agile• Investing in agile needs to be measured

in order to gauge success.
