Reviews / Votes
'PRINCE2 is the most widely-used and highly respected project management method in the world. In this publication Colin Bentley makes it crystal-clear what PRINCE2 is all about. He cuts through the detail and narrative that is a necessary part of the official manuals to provide a short, pithy publication that is easily digested. A wonderful introduction for newcomers to the method, a must-have for experts and practitioners who can use it as a lean companion to remind them of the essentials, and mandatory reading for all executives who have PRINCE2 in their organisation. The method is presented in a way that makes all elements clear and simple to understand. Colin has turned decades of experience into a precision instrument that anyone can apply.'-- John Howarth, PRINCE2 Trainer and Registered PRINCE2 Consultant 'The clear and concise style of this pocket guide provides candidates with a good understanding of the key points required for examination success. I would consider this an essential tool for anyone considering becoming a PRINCE2 practitioner and a useful reference guide for those who have already achieved the qualification.' -- Chris Evans, MBCS DPSM - ITSM Specialist 'This guide provides a summary of the method in a quick and easy to use format. It would be ideal for anyone looking to refresh their understanding of the method for exam revision purposes.' -- Emma Jones
