Master all the modern project strategy and process definition techniques you need, in one focused tutorial!

Leading project consultant Dietmar W. Sokowski brings together powerful insights and tools for accurately defining project domains and boundaries, transforming your definitions into effective requirements and plans, and managing scope and integration from initiation to closing. His holistic approach helps you address actual project realities as you also deepen your knowledge of key PMP® PMBOK® processes and interrelationships. Sokowski addresses issues ranging from reflecting scope in effective project charters through validating that you’ve delivered what you promised. He also offers candid guidance on leading projects when stakeholders are morphing their requirements and making it a daily struggle to control scope.

Whatever your PM role, this tutorial will help you define projects you can successfully execute, keep all your participants and stakeholders aligned, and get the results you’re aiming for.

Integration and scoping are utterly critical to the success of any project. This is the first project management guide focused entirely on these two areas. Seasoned project manager Dietmar W. Sokowski considers these areas holistically, recognizing that scope must be actively managed throughout the entire project lifecycle, and is deeply interconnected with PM integration activities.

Sokowski addresses integration and scope throughout every major PMBOK® project phase, from initiation, with the definition of a single-point-of-reference (SPOR) project charter, through closing, with the completion of the project closure acceptance documentation (PCAD). Drawing on his 30+ years of project management and consulting experience, he offers valuable insights into issues ranging from building effective work breakdown structures to keeping projects from veering off course.

Whether you’re a working PM, PMP® certification candidate, or student, strong integration and scoping expertise is your foundation for success in any project role. This guide gives you that foundation.

· Correctly and completely define project objectives and deliverables
· Translate project domains and boundaries into requirements and integrated project plans
· More accurately assess the impact of potential project changes
· Manage “holistic” linkages among scope, integration, and other processes
· Gain a deeper real-world understanding of key PMBOK® processes
