The New Project Management
Tools for an Age of Rapid Change, Complexity, and Other Business Realities

Praise for the First Edition

"An invaluable reference for the modern project manager. It represents a sharp break with the 'PERT-only' era, capturing the latest theory and practice of the project management art."
--William W. Bahnmaier, Col., USMC (retd), former department chair, Principles of Project Management Division, Defense Systems Management College

"Experienced project managers, newly appointed managers, and professionals of any kind who work in modern organizations where business reengineering, cross-functional teams, and customer satisfaction are key to their success will appreciate the insights and practical project management experience shared in Dr. Frame's book."
--Gus Crosetto, director of training and development, Fannie Mae

"Dr. Frame is again right on target. Dealing effectively with rapid change, possessing a strong customer orientation, and the ability to know what to do and then to do it. These are all key elements to be a successful project manager today. A recommended read for all those in project management."
--Carmen Quatrochi, Wireless Project, AT&T Network Systems, Management Director

Jetzt erscheint das Standardwerk zum Projektmanagement in der 2. aktualisierten Auflage.

Das Unternehmensumfeld im 21. Jahrhundert ist geprägt von Komplexität, Chaos und Ungewissheit. Die althergebrachten und bewährten Methoden des Projektmanagement haben längst ihre Gültigkeit verloren.

Entsprechend den neuen Gegebenheiten, müssen neue Methoden, Verfahren und Prozesse entwickelt werden, die den Herausforderungen des modernen Projektmanagement gerecht werden.

"The New Project Management" bietet hierzu eine Fülle praktischer Lösungen:
- Konkrete Strategien für den Umgang mit der Komplexität
- neue Techniken zur Erkennung der Kunden und zur Maximierung der Kundenzufriedenheit
- ein leicht verständlicher Risikomanagement-Prozess, der auch funktioniert.

Mit Team Management Checklisten.

Mit einer Fülle neuer Beispiele.
