Many PRINCE2
implementation initiatives fail because executives get overwhelmed by the documents
and processes. They are asked to review and approve document after document
without truly understanding the purpose. An over eager, newly certified PRINCE2
project manager can make things even worse by exaggerating the volume and
granularity of information. So what should you do?Here are four advices:
1. Introduce PRINCE2 one piece at the
time. Start with mandates, Project Briefs and Business Cases to ensure a good
foundation. Stage Plans and be a good choice for a second step. Logs and
registers can be introduced a bit more behind the scenes. Be patient but
determined with your organization.
2. Make sure the intention and purpose of
the documents are explained when they are introduced.
3. Get project managers to under
communicate the effort it takes to get management products done.
4. If possible, provide some PRINCE2 training for your key stakeholders. Emphasis that the framework is driven by the 7 principles and that the rest is best practice advices on what it takes to get the principles to work.
