The combination of two best-sellers on applied project management make up this second edition. The author has taken the best from his Successful Project Management and integrated it with his Project Management for Engineers and the result is the most up-to-date coverage of project management available. It features expanded coverage of CPM/Pert methodologies for decision-making in a multivariate environment, explanations of current project management software tools and more emphasis on project management leadership of project team members. An example project used throughout clarifies how to apply all concepts and reports. Strategies are based on the author's consulting business, which twice has been named one of the 100 top management consulting firms in US.

Two Key New Edition Features
This new edition includes over two dozen illustrations of ways in which Microsoft Project software can help project managers and adds a chapter devoted specifically to new product development projects. It retains the simplicity and step-by-step approach that have been a distinguishing hallmark of previous editions.
A successful blueprint for getting projects done on schedule, under budget, and according to specifications every time!
This Fourth Edition of the internationally bestselling guide to project management provides project managers–in–training, product developers, and team leaders with a quick and easy way to master the basics of project management.
Using a lively, conversational style, project management guru Mickey Rosenau and Gregory Githens equip you with a set of fundamental principles and "tested–in–the–trenches" techniques for managing projects in virtually any type of organization. He also arms you with original, easy–to–use tools for resolving any technical, mechanical, or personnel problem that may arise over the course of a project.
To make the complex discipline of project management easy to understand and master, Rosenau and Githens break it down into twenty–two chronological steps, grouped into five phases or processes from defining project goals and planning the work to leading the team, monitoring progress, and completing the project.
Extensively revised to reflect the latest trends in the field, this Fourth Edition features completely new material on the role of integration in project planning and risk–and–issues management, as well as updated and revised coverage on such topics as the process view, virtual teams, new theories and practices of motivation, the quality view, project management offices, and more!
Successful Project Management, Fourth Edition is an ideal primer for students and an indispensable quick reference for experienced project managers, team leaders, and new product developers.
