Practical Project Management

Do you have an unlimited budget to complete your projects correctly? Can you take as much time as you need to get the project done? Do you receive clear directions when a new project lands on your desk? If you’re a project manager, then more often than not, you’re working against these kinds of constraints day in and day out. 

In Practical Project Management, Michael Dobson shows you that project management is more that just using the latest project management software, drawing charts, and leading teams — it’s first and foremost a way of thinking about projects. He’ll show you: 

• The difference between a project and a program
• How to plan and manage your time and costs
• How to focus on the objective
• How to uncover hidden resources and opportunities
• How to brainstorm potential problems and solve them early on 

No matter how many projects and deadlines you’re battling, you’ll gain a thorough understanding of each step in the project life cycle so you can bring your projects in on time and on budget every time.
