Why Project Management: A Practical Approach?
- Focuses on the successful completion of projects
- Practice-oriented and highly accessible
- Additional study materials available online
The primary aim of this book is to facilitate the successful completion of projects. As such, it puts particular emphasis on the importance of careful preparation and strategic co-operation within the project team. It consists of two parts: part one provides a description of a project-based approach to the work environment, an analysis of when such an approach is appropriate and an account of how to make projects work. Part two describes the practical tools and skills needed to tackle projects.
This fourth edition of Project Management is the English version of the fully revised seventh edition of the Dutch bestseller Projectmanagement. Like its Dutch equivalent, this new edition discusses multicultural project teams and the importance of social media in projects. The book also sheds light on the difference between project results and the aim of the project. A new chapter on how to tackle a project is included. The book is also available as an e-book.
