A comprehensive guide to project management and its interaction
with other management systems and strategies

The Wiley Guides to the Management of Projects address critical,
need-to-know information that will enable professionals to
successfully manage projects in most businesses and help students
learn the best practices of the industry. They contain not only
well-known and widely used basic project management practices but
also the newest and most cutting-edge concepts in the broader
theory and practice of managing projects.

This first book in the series, The Wiley Guide to Project, Program
& Portfolio Management, is based on the "meta" level of
management, which, simply stated, asserts that project management
must be integrated throughout an organization in order to achieve
its full potential to enhance the bottom line. This book will show
you how to fully understand and exploit the strategic management of
projects, portfolios, and program management and their linkage with
context and strategy in other concepts and processes, such as
quality management, concurrent engineering, just-in-time delivery,
systems management and engineering, teams, and statistical quality
control.

Featuring contributions from experts all around the world, this
invaluable resource book offers authoritative project management
applications for industry, service businesses, and government
agencies.
