Project Management for New Managers

Whether you’re brand new to project management or you’ve got years of project management experience under your belt, managing and completing a project on time and within budget is not easy.

Each project is different and poses a distinct set of challenges. Irrespective of the type of project you’re working on, you probably face tight deadlines and high expectations.

There’s an old adage “You can’t learn to ride a bicycle at a seminar,” and it fits project management perfectly. Everything in project management is hands-on. Unlike other fields, you can’t find your way to success by making mistakes; experimentation will only get you slaughtered. You need to abide strictly by the principles to succeed. That’s where this book will come in handy.
