The Fast Forward MBA in Project Management (Portable Mba Series)

Buy
PProject management has hung on long past the “new management fad” stage. When the first edition of this book came out in 1999, project management was riding a rocket of popularity. Nine years later the discipline continues to add disciples in new fields such as health care and nonprofit aid organizations. While the fundamentals haven’t changed, the discipline is evolving. This third edition reflects some of those changes.

Part 5 includes several new chapters that provide overviews of related topics. These chapters are intentionally brief—just long enough to introduce the topic and demonstrate its relationship to project management. These chapters introduce enterprise project management, project portfolio management, requirements engineering, and Lean.

Part 5 also includes new chapters on topics that are very much related to project management—the Project Management Professional exam and Microsoft Project. Both the PMP exam and project management software play an important role in the actual practice of project management. Entire books exist on both topics; in this book I’ve chosen to focus on providing some gold nuggets rather than to cover the full topic. For some readers that might be enough; for others it will start you down the path.

This third edition carries on a concept, started in the second edition, of providing additional resources using the Internet. Owners of this book can go to www.versatilecompany.com/FFMBAinPM to download document templates for managing projects, for answers to the PMP exam questions, and for basic tutorials on Microsoft Project.
