| Publisher Description: Project Management has grown to become one of the most sought after careers to date. Every industry commands a forward-thinking, organizationally meticulous maestro at the helm of most projects. The successful project manager will know how to finesse textbook application with agility and emotional intelligence, the hybrid of the three typically learned through trial and error. Enter Joyce, a somewhat green project analyst, immersed in her first official role as a project manager. 'The Project' is a story form/novel style compilation of nuances and considerations for all seekers, and for those seated, in a project management role. Answers are unearthed with actionable practicality, as the rubber meets the road with illustrated challenges every PM will encounter at each phase of a project life cycle. Honest and insightful, 'The Project' transforms the PMBOK into a living, fluid case study that highlights multiple aspects from interviewing, transitioning to a leadership role, planning, resource and conflict management, learning to utilize project tools, and even balancing work with personal life. Written by a seasoned PM Consultant and professor of the field, no detail is left unwritten as the life cycle of a successful PM unfolds authentically throughout the pages of this book. |
