Successful project management is not rocket science but is based on two elements: sound common sense and proven methods and processes. This book covers both and deals with successful project management in a way that is easy to follow for novice project managers while still providing a valuable source of inspiration for the more experienced. It covers a well-proven approach to risk management, together with valuable insights on how to plan, lead, organise and control a project. The book takes the reader through the typical project stages with helpful lists of applicable tasks and deliverables. This effectively provides a blueprint for planning an entire project.
