Inhaltsangabe

Die technischen Fähigkeiten und die Arbeitsumgebung der Autoren, sind in der realen Methodologie deutlich, die sie zur Studium und Verständnis der Bedeutung des Projektmanagements für den Erfolg eines jeden Unternehmens bringen. "From the Foreword by Norman R. Augustine. Die Lockheed-Martin Corporation ist eine wesentliche Fähigkeit in praktisch jeder professionellen und technischen Umgebung und wie jede Fähigkeit wird es am besten durch die richtige Kombination aus tiefgehender Expertenausbildung und praktischen Erfahrungen beherrscht. Visualizing Project Management, Second Edition ist die beste Ressource für beide. Geliefert von einem Trio von Autoren, deren kombinierte Projektmanagement-Erfahrung unvergleichlich im Bereich ist. Ein Team, das ein fester Bestandteil der Entwicklung des Projektmanagements von den 1950er Jahren bis zur Gegenwart war. Die Prozesse und Techniken in diesem Wahrzeichenbuch wurden durch die Erfahrungen von über 30.000 Projektmanagern und über 100 Unternehmungen bestätigt. Der integrierte Ansatz in Visualizing Project Management konzentriert sich auf die vier wesentlichen Elemente des Projektmanagements: 1. Gemeinsame Vokabel: Begriffe und Jargon werden so definiert, wie sie eingeführt werden, minimieren die Vokabelprobleme, die zu Konfliktfällen führen und sonst erfolgreichen Teamwork untergraben können. 2. Teamwork: Jede der Grundlagen eines echten Teamworks, vom gemeinsamen Verhalten bis hin zu gemeinsamen Belohnungen, wird zusammen mit Strategien zur Stärkung dieser wichtigen Komponente diskutiert. 3. The Sequential Project Cycle: Wertvolle Lektionen werden mitgeliefert, damit Sie eine Vorlage für Projekt-einzigartige Taktiken entwickeln und Projektkontinuität erreichen. 4. Management-Elemente: Die Autoren stellen alle Techniken und Werkzeuge zur Verfügung, die Sie brauchen, um ein Projekt zu seinem erfolgreichen Abschluss zu führen - die Erreichung der festgelegten Ziele, innerhalb von Budget und Zeitbeschränkungen

Von der hinteren Coverseite

"The authors′ technical skill and work–environment experience are abundantly apparent in the real–world methodology they bring to the study and understanding of the importance of project management to the success of any organization."–From the Foreword by Norman R. Augustine. Chairman of the Executive Committee, Lockheed–Martin Corporation

Effective project management is an essential skill in virtually every professional and technical setting and, like any skill, it is best mastered through the right combination of in–depth, expert training and hands–on experience.

Visualizing Project Management, Second Edition is today′s best resource for both. Delivered by a trio of authors whose combined project management experience is unequaled in the field–a team that has been an integral part of the development of project management from the 1950s to the present–the processes and techniques in this landmark book have been confirmed through the experiences of over 30,000 working project managers and over 100 corporations.

Profound in its simplicity yet unique in its completeness, the integrated approach presented in Visualizing Project Management focuses on the four essential elements of project management:

1. Common Vocabulary: Terms and jargon are defined as they are introduced, minimizing the vocabulary problems that can lead to conflict and undermine otherwise successful teamwork.

2. Teamwork: Each of the fundamentals of real teamwork–from common conduct to shared rewards–is discussed, along with strategies to strengthen this vital component.

3. The Sequential Project Cycle: Valuable lessons are provided to enable you to develop a template for project–unique tactics as well as achieve project–to–project continuity.

4. Management Elements: The authors provide all the techniques and tools you need to guide a project to its successful conclusion–the achievement of stated objectives, within budget and time constraints.

Visualizing Project Management shows you how to breathe life into each of these inanimate project elements. The result is a working guidebook for total project management success–and a tangible model for moving your organization and career forward into the exciting new millennium.

An Integrated Approach to Results–Oriented Project Management

Better . . . Faster . . . Cheaper . . .

Today′s take–no–prisoners competitive environment has made this the project management mantra for 2000 and beyond. Enlightened project managers know: Unless you can identify accurately the correct benchmark and correctly isolate how to surpass it, your organization will succeed only in producing a better, faster, cheaper failure.

The bestselling Visualizing Project Management first set the standard for effective project management in 1996, and introduced models that have been adopted by over 100 leading government and private organizations. In this Second Edition, the authors have revised the tools and techniques that changed the foundations of project management in order to help you better understand, compete, and win in today′s lightning–fast global business arena.

A few short years ago, the insights and ideas in Visualizing Project Management invented the wheel. Now, its pioneering authors refine your understanding of the project management wheel, as they simplify and clarify the complexities of project management and system engineering.

Also includes a dynamic CD–ROM–Visual Project Management (Visual PM)–providing an interactive software version of the book′s revolutionary process model, a guided tour of a commercial project cycle, vocabulary definitions, sample document templates, and more.
