Starting up and Initiating a Project

Agile and the PRINCE2® 6th Ed. Themes (detailed above).

Change (including the feedback loop).

  • The more changes the better because it means the product is improving, but only if it is done rapidly and efficiently, which is why feedback is crucial.

Organisation (including the servant leadership).

  • Each team member has a particular function aiming at working as efficiently as possible. The servant leader, who is the project manager, takes up the role of coordinator in order to facilitate the process.

Principles and Behaviours

  • Transparency regarding the progress of the project
  • Collaboration between the team members and stakeholders
  • Rich Communication which favour consultation over email and visuals over text
  • Self-organization to empower the project team
  • Exploration, curiosity is privileged

  • This process is about accepting a work package, executing it and delivering it. It occurs between the project manager and the team managers.

Plans

  • Build an overall project plan in order to establish a planned end date. The plan will maintain the Agile approach, which does set time tolerance to zero.

Quality

  • (including the definition of ‘Done’ which is basically a list of everything that should be done for each Product Backlog Item). The quality criteria are unified which simplify PRINCE2® 6th Ed. Agile Practitioner

The project board is accountable for the success of the project, it exercises control over key decisions made and delegate day-to-day management to the project manager.
  • Closing a Project
  • Evaluate the progress of the project with respect to the plan and the usage of Agile method.
