 November 15, 2024

PRINCE2 7th Edition Book Cover

The new PRINCE2 7th Edition Foundation Masterclass is here!

Unlike other training organizations that just use a template for the training material, ours deep-dives into the meat of each Module topic, and it give the student workshop exercises to hone passing skills, and focused Foundation Exam questions, answers and rationale.

If you check out the activities within directing a project, you will note (with the exception of one), they all are points of reviewing information and making an informed decision about what to do next.

Directing a project is used to transfer control to the project manager one management stage at a time, thus providing the project manager with the responsibility of day-to-day management and control.

So, what about that one activity that is different? It’s called “give ongoing direction” and acts as a two-way communication conduit. It is used to ask advice and give answers to the project manager, the business layer, or indeed any other relevant stakeholders.

Once you have watched Module 9 of our Foundation Masterclass, complex-looking diagrams like the following will no longer be an enigma wrapped in a mystery!

The way projects are managed has progressed in recent years to include approaches for both plan-driven projects (projects with defined scope), and adaptive projects (projects where the scope will evolve as the project progresses). The latest Microsoft Project not only supports both approaches, but is versatile enough that it can support hybrid projects (those that use both plan-driven and adaptive approaches) within the same project.
