Description
Olson's "Introduction to Project Management, 2/e" is a project management text that focuses on "systems" issues. The primary focus is to examine the many issues facing MIS project managers. The revision also now incorporates the Project Management Institute's Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), better preparing users for the PMI certification exam. Olson focuses on traditional project management topics such as project adoption, planning, scheduling, and implementation while encouraging students to view the projects holistically and analytically. Utilizing the most current software and project management tools, he provides students with the most effective strategies for today's IT project managers.
