Hello,
Hello,
I‘m PRINCE2
I‘m AGILE

Rethink: Change
shouldn‘t be
the rule: happens always:
must be we deal with it,
tightly controlled anyway

Rethink: Scope
we can
we work with
predict mostly
the business to
accurate
capture as much
what we need and
value as possible in a
what will
given time &
happen
budget

Change of PRINCE2 Mindset required
Rethink quality approach
Refocus Risk Management from Cost of Containment to Value Lost
Lessons learned happens during & after every timebox
Management by exception: focus on Scope vs. focus on Time/Budget
Think requirements vs. Product Features
Reduce level of detail in planning products
