Inhaltsangabe:

This book is a novelization of project management. The characters and events are fictitious; however the techniques, tools,and circumstances described in each chapter are real for just about every project in any environment, from technical to financial. The scenes explain project management from the vantage point of David Michaels, a young executive working for a private zoo. He must manage the dismantling of the zoo through to a successful conclusion. He has little idea how to go about such a task until he meets Noah ... David encounters common pitfalls such as failure to achieve targets on time, budgeting restrictions, an already unreasonable schedule cut back even further, and of course the inevitable staff conflict. In his moments of crisis Noah forces David to think for himself, thereby encouraging the reader to do the same.
The authors have chosen the setting intentionally to show how anyone in any organization can put the methods and concepts of project management to use. The book also includes a 'model' project manual which can be adapted easily to the reader's own projects. Anyone looking for an enjoyable introduction to the secrets of project management will find it in The Noah Project.
