Rating: Summary: the tradition continues Review: This second book could almost be considered a precursor for the "Visualizing Project Management" book in that it takes terms that everyone involved in a project should know. And not just the engineers, scientists and project managers, but also the team members from contracts, finance and front office. The real benefit of the book is that it can easily be used as the communication foundation for any project, reducing issues caused by misunderstanding as well as establishing expectations. The book is written in an easy to follow format that does not intimidate, hence it's wide organizational usability. The perfect gift for your favorite customer. He/She will appreciate the book and will sleep better knowing you are using it.
Rating: Summary: Reference Guide for every Project Manager Review: When you look up the definition of word in a dictionary, it defines the word, tense, and if you're lucky, a sample of how to use the word. This book not only defines almost all current project management practices, vocabularies, acronyms, but it also provides a practical overview, history and background of successful project management practicies in section one (1) through four (4). Illustrations, diagrams, charts, workflow samples and various pictorial representation provides a simple and easy-to- understand visual aids to Project Managers.
