PRINCE2 still popular in organizations that work agile

PRINCE2 is a popular project management method that is still widely used in more stable organizational environments.

PRINCE2 is still popular in organizational environments characterized by a greater degree of stability, where technologies and customer requirements are clear. This makes it possible to implement change initiatives in a more structured way, for example using a methodology such as PRINCE2.

This is in contrast to the agile environments. However, in today's rapidly changing markets and society in which many organizations operate, it can sometimes seem that PRINCE2 is outdated. Nevertheless, it is useful to apply PRINCE2 methodology, because it offers a number of critical success factors that can be of added value.

PRINCE2 still popular

In the training world we still see a lot of demand for PRINCE2 trainings of participants from, for example, the financial sector. Simply because participants want to learn how to properly run a project/change initiative. While it is precisely the financial sector that has strongly embraced agile thinking and acting.
What seems? That systematic project approaches in some departments within large organizations actually add value. For example, elements of PRINCE2 or agile project management can be mixed with agile working methods to enhance the effectiveness of the approach.

PRINCE2 as a structured approach

One of the main advantages of PRINCE2 is that it offers a structured approach to project management. This means that there are clear roles and responsibilities, and that systems and procedures are in place to monitor the progress of the project. By applying PRINCE2, an organization can create certainty about the progress of the project, without sacrificing speed and flexibility.

In addition, PRINCE2 offers a number of tools to identify and manage risks, plan products and manage stakeholders. They are essential skills that are also useful in agile environments. This is of great importance in both a rapidly changing context and in a more stable context. By applying PRINCE2, an organization can proactively identify and manage risks so that they do not negatively impact the project.

In short, PRINCE2 methodology is still useful to apply in organizations that may work largely agile and at the same time have change initiatives that are relatively predictable. In such situations, structured approaches like PRINCE2 can be effective.
