Overview of PRINCE2

Overview

Welcome to Audio Learning from Assemble You.

PRINCE2 is a type of project management system that puts great emphasis on control. It aims to ensure that a challenging, complex project can be easily managed and controlled by being divided into smaller stages and conducted with certain principles in mind.

It's a strategic approach founded on the belief that all projects, no matter how well-planned or high-budget they are, can fall apart due to changes from external forces and a failure to manage risks. With Prince2, you only need to deal with one stage at a time, which provides much more control.
