PRINCE2^® principles

PRINCE2 is a well-structured project management methodology, and we’ll talk more about it in the next chapter. It also has a set of principles:

1. Continued business justification
2. Learn from experience
3. Defined roles and responsibilities
4. Manage by stages
5. Manage by exception
6. Focus on products
7. Tailor to suit the project

These principles more or less apply to all projects, but they are specifically designed to support the PRINCE2 methodology rather than being a guide for every project.
