Produktbeschreibung

Based on a sound conceptual foundation yet developed to meet practical concerns, Project Risk Management has become recognized as a standard work on its subject. It sets out the key issues and concepts involved in effective risk and uncertainty management in a clear and accessibly way, providing a comprehensive discussion of risk management processes set firmly in the context of the project management task as a whole and focused on improving performance. Essential reading for anyone involved in managing projects-including senior and middle managers, consultants, and practitioners-the Third Edition incorporates discussion of all key developments in the field since the previous edition was published in 2003 and adds new material from the US Project Management Institute to deliver a truly international perspective.
