P3.express fiction creates its own universe. Memorable characters populate it, with adventure, crime and evil spells strewn across their daily routines in heaping measure.

P3.express fiction aims to promote this minimalist, practical project management system. It is easy to learn, easy to use, open and free under a Creative Commons license.

Despite the existence of fundamental methods such as PRINCE2® and the PMBOK® Guide, many projects are run intuitively. Fundamental standards, while invaluable, may be too complex for smaller and less intricate projects.

P3.express uses a cyclical system to make the activities simpler and more regular. There are monthly, weekly, and daily cycles. Each of these focuses on one aspect of managerial activities.

In addition to the cycles, a project initiation activity group runs at the beginning Plus a project closure activity group takes place at project’s end.

Finally, there’s a post-project activity group. This cycle runs after the project finishes, to evaluate the benefits.

Using P3.express can be real fun, and that’s one good reason for learning it.

Managing projects is a job filled with excitement and discovery, and P3.express absolutely embodies this spirit. But to take real interest in something new and become eager to explore the novelty, our passions need to drive us.

P3.express fiction offers a focus on emotions that influence our behaviour.
