In den letzten 10 Jahren fanden Techniken des Projektmanagements in der allgemeinen Unternehmensführung verstärkt Anwendung. Sie wurden von angesehenen Firmen eingesetzt zur Vergrößerung des Marktanteils, zur Qualitätsverbesserung der Endprodukte und zur Verbesserung der Kundenbetreuung.
Dies ist die überarbeitete neue Auflage eines Bestsellers, der das Projektmanagement in fünf allgemeine Aufgabenbereiche gliedert: Definition des Projektziels, Arbeitsplanung, Teamführung, Überwachung der Fortschritte und Vollendung des Projekts. Das Buch beschreibt detailliert, wie man den Zeitplan für ein Projekt einhält, mit den Kosten unter Budget bleibt und die Leistungserwartungen erfüllt. Im saloppen, leicht verständlichen Stil geschrieben, ist dieses Buch eine Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung, die sich exakt an den Bedürfnissen des Projektmanagers orientiert.
