THE WILEY GUIDE TO Project Organization & Project Management Competencies

A guide to the human factors in project management: knowledge, learning, and maturity

THE WILEY GUIDES TO THE MANAGEMENT OF PROJECTS address critical, need-to-know information that will help professionals successfully manage projects in most businesses and help students learn the best practices of the industry. They contain not only well-known and widely used basic project management practices but also the newest and most cutting-edge concepts in the broader theory and practice of managing projects.

This third volume in the series covers a range of organizational and people-based topics that are occupying the project management world today. The essence of project management represents a “people” challenge―the ability to appreciate and effectively employ the competencies of all those who are associated with the project development and delivery process. This book explains how you can more successfully manage a project from inception through delivery by learning how to handle critical issues around structure, teams, leadership, power and negotiation, and the whole area of competencies. The expert contributors also include chapters on global project management knowledge and standards, the role of project management associations around the world, project management maturity models, and other key topics.

Complete your understanding of project management with these other books in The Wiley Guides to the Management of Projects series:

• The Wiley Guide to Project Control
• The Wiley Guide to Project, Program & Portfolio Management
• The Wiley Guide to Project Technology, Supply Chain & Procurement Management
