Experience over the last two to three decades has indicated that in many developing countries, projects have failed due to the lack of project management. This has led to an increased demand for project management training.
Often current texts are based on the western concept of projects, relating primarily to industrial and infrastructure development, which are only partly relevant to development within the third world. Texts are sector specific and rarely include coverage of the full range of the technical tasks and interpersonal skills managers require. The editors provide a broad introduction to project management in the context of developing economies. The core of the text is dedicated to concepts, systems and skills of project management covering technical, organisational and people related skills.
This innovative approach will prove valuable reading for those studying or working within the field of project management. It provides a comprehensive framework within which present and potential project managers can develop their capabilities and skills, as well as being a source of reference material on specific concerns and aspects of management.
