What is PRINCE2 Agile?

Agile methods have become increasingly popular in recent years, with organisations across all industries realising the benefits and successes that agile can bring.

Combining PRINCE2 with agile creates a more powerful approach, offering the flexibility of agile, but still retaining the authority, strength and governance of PRINCE2.

PRINCE2 Agile was developed due to popular demand. It was felt there was a need for something which addressed common project governance issues which affected agile projects.
