A Team Member?s Guide to Project Management: The Fundaments of Project and Program Management

All projects regardless of their size require planning, communication, and conflict management. This book will help seasoned or new project team members to understand the fundamentals of project management. These fundamentals will be presented in a story about siblings building a fence as an anniversary gift for their parents.

The story follows their progress from project conception to project completion. Similar to all projects, they will utilize essential project management tools, create a plan, work through disagreements, react and adapt to the unexpected, and creatively solve problems. How they plan for and work through these challenges will determine whether they build the fence on time, on budget, and stay on good terms with each other.

Whatever your project, their story is an easy way to make sense of project management, its tools, dos and donts, and how to sustain the engagement of project team members.
