Infos

Who needs to manage a project? Well, frankly, everyone working in the public or private sector. Yet how many of us get adequately trained in how to do it? This is where this book can help. Written by an experienced practitioner, what lies at the beating heart of this book is the structure of a strategy to ensure that every project is successful. This book encourages the reader to develop a Project Management Plan for a case study project. It enables the reader to prepare for the APM Introductory Certificate examination, and includes helpful test questions in each chapter. And it is written by someone who has 'been there', managed many projects and shares her real-life experiences in an entertaining fictional diary at the end of each chapter. This book will show you, teach you, entertain you and provide you with a practical set of project management templates. This is an essential guide for all people in business, and is a useful tool for Business Studies/Management students.
