Being a Project Manager: A Different Book on Project Management - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Master the essential elements of effective project management

Learn the key foundations of project management—planning, control, and communication. The bread on the cover represents the project’s end product, combining all its ingredients: flour is the basis; yeast, the means for leavening and turning dough into bread; water, the glue that bonds all ingredients. The same applies in a project: planning is its basis; control, the means to achieve its objectives; communication bonds the project’s stakeholders and expresses the tone and pace of management.

This unique book proposes a range of simple support tools that you can easily implement to initiate a process of continuous project management skills improvement. Learn how to hone your expertise in defining a clear set of project objectives, plan for their achievement, and control your project by identifying and effectively responding to any gaps between your plan and actual project execution. Become familiar with both formal and informal methods and channels of communication among all the various stakeholders in your project, often by traveling the project's "unpaved" roads. All this is essential to a well-run project.
