Prince2:2009 - My New Primer Toolkit!

 I've just given birth....to my Brand New LIMITED EDITION Prince2:2009 Primer. I started work on it back in April this year, knowing that the new Prince2:2009 Manual was to be released around mid June.

My new LIMITED EDITION Primer has been designed based on the many glowing reports of the original Primer. In response, I've gone into full detail on the slides, ending up with 320 animated foils, which I used to record over 20 hours of step-by-step full motion video tutorial in the form of 16 Modules..

There's no padding, no fill, just clear, concise tutorials on every corner of the new Manual. I leave no stone unturned.

But I didn't stop there. I created a massive 200-question QUIZ based on the Foundation exam questions, and 20 in-depth exercises to test the students understanding of key Prince2:2009 aspects. As before, I've created a Workbook for each of the Modules containing full colour graphics of every single slide.

As I write this, my WebMaster, Nick has just finished setting up the shopping cart and download facility for the entire Toolkit. I've got a VERY special discount price for the first 100 folks who invest....

My Projects

So I woke up this morning and decided to talk to my cdn Nick (of projex fame) and try to prioritize all my website ideas. He suggested (well threatened, coerced and forced is more accurate) that I list all my brainload of ideas so we can have a plan of attack and a schedule for implementation over the next couple of weeks.

Here it is:

The Entrepreneurial Project Manager

This is a strange blog for me to write... But it occured to me that project managers must be one of the most entrepreneurial species on the planet! Here's why. Our customer seeks an opportunity and asks us to deliver it... So we take that opportunity, produce a plan and go on to deliver the end-product for the customer, who then uses this new capability to deliver financial benefits for themselves... That's right -- we manage change for others so they can get benefits! And it's high time we used our talent for managing change, but instead, get the financial benefits for ourselves and family... Because of our unique project management skills, you and I are better placed than ANY other profession to run this type of 'set-and-forget' autopilot business... Here's the story. I had the good fortune to do business with a fellow called Andrew some 5 years back, and he taught me how to apply my project management skills TO and FOR myself. As it turns out, i

The More Things Change - The More They Stay The Same

 I haven't been sleeping too well recently, in that I keep waking at 04:30 or thereabouts, and I'm darned if I can get back to sleep...

I usually toss and turn for about 45 minutes, give up and get up. A cup of tea or coffee later, and I'm beavering away at my PC.

I think I know what's at the heart of it all.  2009 has been a year of significant change for me, in many small but important ways, and my subconscious brain has been working overtime! A good buddy and Uber-Smart money-making associate of mine Dave Shillito, has a great technique when he has a problem to solve - he speaks aloud "subconscious brain - go to work on it and give me a solution". Then he carries on doing whatever he's doing.

Craziest thing to watch I'm telling you!  But it works.
