Project Management Case Studies [Englisch] [Taschenbuch]

This case studies book was strategically planned in order to 1) pull cases from the main volume in order to reduce its overall size, 2) package all case studies in one book to be used in college or professional training courses. Based on user feedback, for this Second Edition we have added a number of new cases covering construction and international project management. Total number of cases equals 94, with 25 new to this edition.

This is the revised edition of the single best source of project management case studies. "Project Management Case Studies, Second Edition" presents the most comprehensive collection of project management case studies available today. Compiled by Harold Kerzner, the leading authority on project management, it offers more than ninety case studies that illustrate both successful implementation of project management by actual companies and pitfalls to avoid in a variety of real world situations.
