FEATURES

• Views project management from an organisational behaviour perspective, thus supplementing conventional approaches that stress formal methods and procedures. The focus is on the human aspects of managing projects and their teams.

• The author draws from his own research and practitioner experiences as a basis for the ideas and theories presented, thereby connecting theory and practice.

• Each chapter begins with a short introductory section leading to learning objectives, and concludes with a case study and questions, further reading and references. This provides structured learning and self-assessment opportunities, and encourages readers to engage actively with the subject material.
  
• 'Notepad' application feature integrated throughout the text encourage readers to relate the topic of a section to their own experience, or that of an organisation.
