Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

A revised, updated, and reorganized text for undergraduate or graduate courses in both business and engineering, as well as for functional managers and upper-level executives who must provide continuous support to all projects. It explains the characteristics of every size and type of group, presents the basics of systems theory and organizational structure, and provides practical advice on how to conceive, staff, and guide a project management department for maximum effectiveness and cost efficiency. The new edition of this classic guide enables you to learn from the successes and failures of leading companies to explore new cost control and risk management techniques and to assess the impact of concurrent engineering. You'll also learn how to merge total quality management methods with effective project planning, master conflict resolution, predict project success and obtain the information needed to study for the PMI Certification exam.

Reseña del editor:

The author has extensive experience as a planning executive for a leading corporation, a consultant to the international business community, an educator, and the leader of a popular series of project management seminars. Project Management, Fifth Edition, synthesizes this wealth of knowledge into a practical resource you will rely on every day - learn from the successes and failures of leading companies in planning and scheduling complex projects, explore new cost control and risk management techniques, assess the impact of concurrent engineering, merge total quality management techniques with effective project planning, master the resolution of conflicts in project planning and execution, and gain skill at predicting project success at early stages of evolution. The design of the Fifth Edition has been considerably enhanced to make this a usable desktop companion for the working professional and educator, and a focused self-study and review guide for project managers who plan to take the certification exam. Worksheets, checklists, and chapter summaries are highlighted so that essential points are visible at a glance.
