Description
Managing Stakeholder Expectations for Project Success provides a practical approach to managing those things that matter most for project success-stakeholder expectations, communication, risk, change, and quality-so that scope, schedule, and cost end up on target and the project's intended benefits for the organization are realized.This unique desk reference shows how to utilize the best practices, concepts, and methodologies found in PMI's PMBOK Guide, along with a few concepts from APMG's PRINCE2, and leverage them in the context of organizational challenges and project realities. It features new methods for successful project management that focus on understanding and managing stakeholders' needs and expectations, communication, time management, and organizational politics and culture. The book's content and design also make it a valuable resource for PMP certification.
