A well presented and practical guide for PRINCE2 project managers (1/2 people found this helpful)
With 5 years experience as a PRINCE2 trainer I consider that `PRINCE2TM Planning and Control Using Microsoft® Project 2007' is a timely publication addressing the increasing use of the PRINCE2 as a corporate project management method or framework. Outside of major engineering organizations Microsoft® Project is probably the most widely used project scheduling tool in use today. It is also a fact that many users never receive formal training in the use of the application with the result that the power and flexibility of Microsoft® Project is rarely fully utilized. The PRINCE2 method requires good planning to facilitate resource management, progress tracking and control. Paul Harris' manual unlocks the power and versatility of Microsoft® Project with a logical presentation of the tool in the context of a PRINCE2 project scenario. He clearly identifies the areas where Microsoft® Project supports the PRINCE2 method and is equally candid in addressing areas of weakness, but he always proposes a work-around. This is particularly so in dealing with PRINCE2s product-based-planning approach. Chapters I found very useful were those on understanding dependencies, formulating reports and on tracking progress. The mix of information and exercises is very good and this book will be very useful as a day-to-day reference for every project manager.
