Kurzbeschreibung

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

Free trial version of Microsoft Project(r) and Crystal Ball(r)

This text includes a CD-ROM containing a 120-day trial version of Microsoft Project(r) and a student version of Crystal Ball(r). Microsoft Project and Crystal Ball screenshots appear where relevant throughout the text. Additionally, a number of end-of-chapter exercises encourage you to apply these computer software packages to project management problems.

An outstanding guide to the field. 9. M�rz 2000

Von Hugh Gleaves

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe

This is an outstanding book. Whether you are new to project management or and old-hand, this book covers many topics in a business like and mature fashion.

I especially recommned it to IT project managers, precisley because it ISNT focused on IT. It is very informative to see how project management is carried out in other industries.

This book cant help but broaden your appreciation of this vitally important aspect of management.

THERE IS A 4TH EDITION , YEAR 2000 USED BY US AT UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX IN PUERTO RICO. THE BOOK IS SO FRIENDLY BECAUSE IS FOCUSED TO MANAGERS IN ORDER TO MANAGE THE CYCLE OF LIFE OF A PROJECT. OTHER BOOKS ARE ECONOMIC OR ENGINEERING ORIENTED AND TOO DIFFICULT TO TAUGHT AND FOR LEARNING PURPOSES. THANKS A HAD THIS BOOK SO I COULD TRANSMIT TH EMESSAGE MORE CLEAR. DRA. MARRERO
