Recommended by the Project Management Institute.
With over 80 percent of software projects deemed as failures, the demand for project managers who possess the necessary skills and competencies to succeed is on the rise! The second edition of this bestselling book describes how business environments are changing, how that affects the project manager, and what role project management plays in today's organizations.
Written by expert consultants in project management, this book/CD-ROM package uses a simulated real-world scenario to teach you the skills you need to keep your IT project on schedule, within budget, and according to specification. From staging and planning to implementation and completion, you'll learn what it takes to become a world-class project manager.
This book shows you how to:
* Determine the scope of a project
* Estimate the length of a project and determine resource requirements and cost
* Construct and analyze the project network diagram
* Finalize a schedule based on resource availability
* Recruit, organize, and manage a project team
* Monitor and control the progress of a project
* Close out a successful project
The CD-ROM contains interactive files that reinforce the principles and skills discussed in the book. The authors walk you through the book's example scenario and the decisions you would make as the project manager. When you feel you're ready to manage a project on your own, you can practice the skills you've learned with the bonus scenario. Adobe(r) Acrobat Reader Version 4.0 and Microsoft(r) Project98 120-Day Evaluation Edition are also included.

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
