New Directions in Project Management

More than just a book on managing software development projects, New Directions in Project Management provides in-depth coverage of best practices determined by measurable results, not vague ideologies. A comprehensive treatment of software development project management, the book covers managing outsourced projects, team- and consensus-building, requirements definition, systems integration, measurement and metrics, and quality assurance and testing. Rather than force-feeding a particular vision of project management and one methodology, the concepts and techniques presented here provide valuable advice and guidance for project success in all industries, from low- to high-tech, manufacturing, or financial.
