Andy Murray highlights the significant influence people have in shaping project outcomes, even more so than technical challenges in specific areas of work. He uses this to demonstrate the profound impact human factors can have on the implementation of a method. While the core principles of the method remain largely unchanged, as Joe Lucas noted with her mention of the 90%, it's the human dynamics and their interplay with the method that dictates its effective application. Murray believes the connection between the People chapter, which Lucas authored for PRINCE2 V7, and the organizing practices exemplifies this crucial relationship between methodology and human influence.
