Product Description

Review

"Overall this is a solid book about PRINCE2 with practical advice about how to use the method for large projects or tailor it for small projects. This is a good step beyond an introduction without any attempt to be a study guide. In doing so, the author has written something all students of project management should read before taking a PRINCE2 exam."

Carol Long, MCQI CQP, Qualityworld (QW) magazine

Product Description

Struggling to apply the principles of PRINCE2T to make the method work in practice? Need guidance on adapting the process depending on context and scaling for smaller projects?

Revised and updated throughout to match the details and requirements of the 2009 PRINCE2 manual, PRINCE2T: A Practical Handbook, 3rd edition is the solution-a readable, practical reference with real life examples and case studies, links between related components and processes, and clear guidance on how to fine-tune the method to suit situation and size.

Whether you are looking to further your reading in preparation for the PRINCE2 examinations, keep your knowledge and skills up to date to maintain registered status or apply the theory of PRINCE2 to everyday project work after certification, PRINCE2T: A Practical Handbook is an affordable alternative to expensive training and an indispensable addition to your project management bookshelf.

Author Colin Bentley has spent the last 40 years managing projects, large and small, across the world. He has worked with PRINCE2, PRINCE and its predecessor, PROMPT II, since the 1970s and was one of the team that brought PROMPT II to the marketplace. As the main author of the original PRINCE2 manual, a former Chief Examiner in PRINCE2 for the Association for Project Management Group (APMG) and Lead Reviewer for the 2009 PRINCE2 manual, he is the perfect guide to real-world application of PRINCE2 beyond the classroom theory for project management success.

* Revised and updated throughout to match the details and requirements of the 2009 PRINCE2T manual
* Provides the valuable, practical real-world guidance you need post-training to put the PRINCE2 method into practice in different project contexts
* An affordable alternative to further expensive training to help you develop your skills and career through successful, cost-effective and timely delivery of projects

This book provides an accessible, practical view of managing a Prince 2 project - that is actually readable, as opposed to the official manual which is exactly that - a reference manual and not an easy read.

The `what, why, who, how' approach to the process chapters guides you through the relevant detail in a logical manner and the `In Practice' and `For Small Projects' sections adds the practical detail you need when considering projects in the real world - particularly some basic practical tips for tailoring to the smaller project environment.

Throughout the Themes chapters, the `Do's and Don't s' and `If it's a large /small Project' sections again inject the more practical advice that you wont find in the official manual.

Great book for project management. Good methodologies and principles adopted and it has of late helped me manage some of my projects a great deal. If you want a book on PRINCE2, this book is a definitely good one to go for. Got the book brand new for very good price compared to the majority bookshops!
