Summary

The Project Management Lifecycle is the first book of its kind, providing a complete methodology for the management of projects. No longer will managers have to outsource to large consulting firms to ensure that their project is managed in a methodical fashion. Managers will now be able to implement best practice methods in-house saving them time and money. This book reveals the unique Method 123 Project Management Methodology by defining the phases, activities and tasks required to complete a project. It's different because it describes the lifecycle clearly and prescriptively, without the complex terminology rife throughout the industry. Its comprehensive coverage, consistent depth and suite of tools will help managers to undertake projects successfully.
