Field Guide to Project Management

Résumé du livre

Written by the co-editor of the highly successful Project Management Handbook along with 38 contributors, this book is an easily understandable, hands-on guide to project team management today. Rather than focusing on theories, software tools, or abstract models, each chapter features examples from actual companies, addressing the questions and problems they encountered, and the way in which they reached their solutions. Recognized experts summarize state-of-the-art practices in this rapidly growing field, and checklists and model templates illustrate each of their examples. The Field Guide employs an accessible, common-sense perspective that will particularly appeal to newly formed teams. Cleland's emphasis on early intervention in problem solving will also interest experienced project managers. Includes current annotated bibliography for further research.
