‘PRINCE2 is the most widely-used and highly respected project management method in the world. With his inimitable clear and direct style, Colin makes it crystal-clear what PRINCE2 is all about.

Colin has turned decades of experience into a well structured narrative that will pay dividends to any reader for many years to come, on their journey from taking the foundation examination to becoming an experienced practitioner.’ - John Howarth, Chairman, Tanner James Management Consultants, Australia ‘Colin has done an excellent job in summarising the PRINCE2 manual and I have no hesitation is recommending this book to anyone with an interest in PRINCE2 who would like an understanding of the method, and for those studying for their Foundation Qualification it will be invaluable.’ - David W Atkinson FAPM
