Book description
The bestselling project management text for students and
professionalsÂ-now updated and expanded
This Eleventh Edition of the bestselling "bible" of
project management maintains the streamlined approach of the prior
editions and moves the content even closer to PMI's Project Management
Body of Knowledge (PMBOK). New content has been added to this edition
on measuring project management ROI, value to the organization and to
customers, and much more. The capstone "super" case on the
"Iridium Project" has been maintained, covering all aspects
of project management. Increased use of sidebars throughout the book
helps further align it with the PMBOK and the Project Management
Professional (PMP) Certification Exam.
This new edition features significant expansion, including more than
three dozen entirely new sections and updates on process supporting;
types of project closure; project sponsorship; and culture, teamwork,
and trust. This comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of
project management:
- Offers new sections on added value, business intelligence,
project governance, and much more
- Provides twenty-five case studies covering a variety of
industries, almost all of which are real-world situations drawn
from the author's practice
- Includes 400 discussion questions and more than 125
multiple-choice questions
- Serves as an excellent study guide for the PMP Certification
Exam
