PMI Is Quietly Killing Disciplined Agile

PMI is quietly killing off Disciplined Agile, the product that they launched in 2019.

I haven’t written about Disciplined Agile in a while. And for good reason — there really isn’t much to write about. In fact, things are so quiet that I am pretty sure that PMI is quietly killing off Disciplined Agile.

Why Is PMI Killing Off Disciplined Agile?

Who knows?

Perhaps it is not Intentional

It could be completely unintentional. It is possible that PMI is not agile enough to nurture and launch a new certification like Disciplined Agile. This reason will make sense if you look at all the newer certifications from PMI that have gained little or no traction in the market.

Check out the list of non-PMP certifications below and the net increase in the last two years. Only the 11-year-old PMI-ACP has done moderately well and even that is nowhere near the success of the Project Management Professional (PMP).
