Synopsis
Perhaps many of us do not realise how pervasive projects are in our lives and work, and how unprepared we are to manage them. How often do we find ourselves struggling to deliver on endeavours we are entrusted with or we voluntarily embark on? With so many activities going on simultaneously and several parties having different responsibilities, we can feel lost and not in control. The fact that we are involved with a special category of endeavours and need a different set of competences, processes, tools and techniques to manage them is often not clear to us.This book provides a guide for the management of projects for the accidental project managers who just find projects thrust on them, aspiring project managers who want to become professional project managers, project management students and teachers, and even experienced project managers who might need to review a topic or two. It establishes a framework of best practices to enhance the chances of project success. The principles outlined in the book are profession and discipline agnostic, being applicable to different types of projects across different disciplines.Bayo Adeola shares over thirty years’ experience of managing projects and teaching project management. He walks the reader through the fundamentals of the Principles and Practice of Project Management, signposted with recognisable life examples of illustrations and case studies - from a wedding and film-production to new home build for a young couple and business system automation or a company. Each chapter explains in detail, what is required to ensure risks and issues are managed through reasoned decision making.
