I am a PMP and I live the UK the birthplace of Prince2, I therefore feel the need to understand Prince2 although I don’t really want to pursue Prince2 accreditation, so I set out to read the Prince2 ‘book’ (Managing Succesful Projects with Prince2) and check how it compares to PMBOK.

In this first article I introduce PMBOK v4 and Prince2 to give a general overview, then I will then attempt to make a link between both standards organisation.

In the subsequent articles I will go into more details about comparing the two standards.
