Synopsis:

This helpful book gives you a complete understanding of what it takes to successfully complete a project from start to finish.

While the technical side of project management is important, it's often "people problems" that derail even the most meticulously planned of projects. A Survival Guide for Project Managers not only gives you resources like Work Breakdown Schedule, Gantt Charts, and Network Analysis, but also valuable tools to communicate, negotiate, listen, and lead.

This practical, user-friendly guide walks you through the entire project life cycle, and shows you how to:

  • Develop the managerial and business skills required of a project manager
  • Resolve conflicts and improve negotiation capabilities
  • Understand and apply the technical tools of project management
  • Establish project teams, and foster collaboration among team members, and more.

A Survival Guide for Project Managers reflects the latest version of the PMBOK® Guide, and includes material on topics including project risk, cost-schedule index, the project management office, and emotional intelligence as it applies to project management. Packed with useful forms, charts, and other tools, this is the ultimate resource for project managers.

About the Author:
