Rezensionen / Stimmen
"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."
