Practical Project Management

For courses in Project Management, especially in business and telecommunications-oriented programs.

Unique in format, approach, and content, this text follows a fictional training seminar given to six management professionals who are “trainees” in project management. In the seminar, the trainees work through two major projects and several other smaller projects―each highlighting and refining different issues that will make the managers better at controlling a complex process and in avoiding and eliminating unnecessary stress for the project, themselves, and their employees. Exceptionally practical and applied, the text guides students through a proven strategy for success and provides them with the tools they need to handle any project's unique combination of people, processes, and tasks.
