Focus on: Agile Programme Management
In today’s fast-changing landscape, organisations need to manage large programmes of change with both structure and adaptability. Agile Programme Management (AgilePgM®), developed by APMG International and the Agile Business Consortium, provides a framework for delivering transformational change in an agile way — without losing the essential discipline of programme governance.
What is Agile Programme Management?
Agile Programme Management (AgilePgM®) bridges the gap between agile delivery and traditional programme structures. It’s designed to help organisations manage multiple projects and streams of work in a coordinated, adaptive way — delivering benefits early and responding to change as it happens.
Whereas traditional programmes often rely on detailed long-term plans and fixed scope, AgilePgM® encourages incremental delivery, iterative planning, and frequent feedback loops. This enables programme teams to steer complex change initiatives with confidence — even when not everything is known upfront.
Why Agile Programme Management?
- Earlier realisation of benefits – by delivering in increments rather than waiting for a final “big bang”.
- Improved stakeholder engagement – through transparent communication and regular review points.
- Adaptive governance – maintaining appropriate control while allowing flexibility where it’s needed most.
- Better risk management – issues are surfaced and addressed earlier through iterative cycles.
- Seamless integration – AgilePgM® works alongside existing corporate governance structures, making it easier to adopt without overhauling everything at once.
This approach is particularly well suited to large transformation programmes that involve multiple agile teams, changing priorities, and evolving business goals.
