Know how to respond when things don't fall into place.
Skydiving has its inherent risks. Even though a professional team, like the one depicted on the cover, can make skydiving seem perfectly choreographed; there are always uncertainties. Whether it's getting a skydiving team into the air or a new product off the ground, no project has ever been completed exactly as planned.
With Meredith and Mantel's Sixth Edition, you'll not only learn how to select, initiate, operate, and control all types of projects; you'll also learn how to manage risks and uncertainties. Written from a managerial perspective, the text equips you with the quantitative skills, knowledge of organizational issues, and insights into human behavior that you need to do project management effectively.
Updated and revised, this edition features current coverage of topics such as:
* Risk management
* Lifecycle costing
* Real options
* Organizational process assets
* Non-technical project terminations
* The phase/quality-gate process
* Requirements formulation analysis

Project Management
| Customer Rating: | | This is the hardest text book to follow that I have ever had. But,it does contain a wealth of information |
Good for the inexperienced.
| Customer Rating: | The book isn't too bad, it often gets a bit wordy (unnecessarily) but carries a number of interesting stories and lessons. The project management sources it cites are a bit older and, while they don't change dramatically over time, there are times when you may feel as though the sources may be dated.
A fairly good book for project management, but only if you're just starting out, the lessons for an experienced PM would be few and far between.
I needed it for a class and it paired well with it. |
Good!
| Customer Rating: | This is a very good book for understanding the fundamentals of project management. Concepts have been detailed appropriately. However, it should provide additional real-world examples as I found that a little lacking.
Otherwise, not bad. |
Project Mangement
| Customer Rating: | | This book is too technical and not really practical. I was not satisfied when applying it to project management. I suggest to find search other books in project management. Not a good resource. |
Worthless book
| Customer Rating: | | I don't recommend this book. The two authors don't blend well. The terminology seems to constantly change and never is consistent with PMI's PMBoK. Our professor will not be using this text again. |
