Project Management Bootcamp
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-52122-0 (ISBN)
Because theory can only get you so far, a key element of the book is learning from real projects drawing on the experience of project managers working across three continents. Each chapter ends with challenges to readers to reflect on their learning, which can be based on a theoretical case study or their own project. The result is a reflective framework that charts their learning and their project management journey from initiation to closure.
Project Management Bootcamp is essential reading for junior and mid-level career project managers, as well as any professionals who finds themselves in charge of a project and are unsure how to get the best result. Students in business and management courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels will also value its setting of theory into a practical context.
Peter Cross began his career in local government and became an “accidental” project manager when he was made responsible for delivering IT and business change projects. Later, he moved on to computer audit for an international accounting firm, where he had the opportunity to review and comment on IT project failures in both the public and private sectors. He qualified as a programme manager and went on to lead a wide variety of projects and programmes. He now works in the UK and Europe, delivering, advising on, and rescuing projects with construction elements as well as IT and business change.
