Description
This is the essential guide for anyone involved in project management-both managers new to its concepts and established professionals. Thorough yet succinct, it leads you through every aspect of this complicated process-the "hard" technical skills and the "soft" political and organizational savvy needed to plan, implement, and complete large projects successfully.
Joan Knutson and Ira Bitz have more than 50 years of combined project management experience in companies ranging from Tiffany's to AT&T. Their guidance applies not only to fields that have traditionally relied on project management techniques, such as information systems, but also to corporate planning, R&D, relocation, and new product development. And Project Management offers a unique head start for the expanding number of managers who are beginning to be involved in cross-functional project teams.
