The Practice Of Project Management

Traditional project management has tended to focus primarily on the processes of managing projects to successful completion. But in today’s highly competitive and fast-paced environment, it has become necessary to manage projects from their inception through to actual delivery of the business-enabling objectives. This requires a different project management approach where project management needs to become part of the business. This book addresses the concepts and issues of business project management, assisting organizations to make the shift from the narrow, strong, technical focus on project management to a broader, more business-oriented focus. Packed with unique concepts, processes and models, it will enable the development of project management skills to complement technical expertise and allow readers to provide the project skills that their customers demand.
