About the Book

Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager™

Book Summary (PDF)

In today’s workplace, employees are routinely expected to coordinate and manage projects. Yet, chances are, they aren’t formally trained in managing projects because they’re unofficial project managers. Unofficial project managers in any arena will benefit from the accessible, engaging, real-life anecdotes, Application Challenges, and quick reviews at the end of each chapter.

The Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager book offers practical, real-world insights based on established project management principles to guide readers through every project to successful completion.
