Benefits of Agile PM
Benefits for organisations:
- Deliver change faster, at a lower cost and with lower risk by continually validating project milestones against business objectives.
- Faster "Return on Investment" when compared with the more traditional project approaches.
- Complements and works with existing corporate processes such as PRINCE2®, quality and audit.
- Adopt a tried and tested approach rather than developing and integrating a company-specific agile management process.
- Achieve better communication and control over projects and adapt project plans without disrupting the project budget, timescale and scope.
- By involving stakeholders at every point they are more likely to claim ownership of the solution.
- The completed solution is more likely to meet the users' real business requirements.
- Deployment is likely to go smoothly because of the co-operation of all parties.
Benefits for individuals:

- Clarify different management styles needed for successful agile projects compared to traditional projects and be able to tailor these to the situation.
- Actively promote trust and close co-operation between the business and developers and provide the business ongoing visibility into what is happening.
