Download or read book Relationship Management and the Management of Projects written by Hedley Smyth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relationship Management and the Management of Projects is a guide to successfully building and managing relationships as a project manager and in the project business. Relationship management is a core skill for any project business to develop capabilities and manage the interface with projects, providing guidance to project managers as they negotiate with business partners and coordinate between business functions. Whatever the structures and procedures an organization has and whatever the project management tools and techniques, they are only as good as the hands they are in. Yet relationship management, though a well-established discipline, is rarely applied to the process-driven world of project management. This book is a much-needed guide to the process of enhancing these skills to boost firm performance, team performance and develop collaborative practices. Hedley Smyth guides you through the processes of relationship management examining the theory and practice. This book highlights the range of options available to further develop current practices to ensure a successful relationship management in all stages of a project’s lifecycle. Relationship Management and the Management of Projects is valuable reading for all students and specialists in project management, as well as project managers in business, management, the built environment, or indeed any industry.

Download or read book The Future of Project Management written by Igor Vrečko and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern project management is different from what it was ten years ago. New methods and tools have been developed, the number of projects and members in project teams has increased, professionalism in project management has generally increased, and projects have become highly complex. Parallel to this, artificial intelligence, automation, information and communication technology, human resources management, and many other areas are being developed, which will continue to impact project management in the future significantly. At the same time, new generations of young people are entering the labour market with different needs and expectations for project work. The authors of the book provide decision-makers, project workers, and students with an insight into the modern challenges of project management due to digitization, artificial intelligence and project economy. The book is based on knowledge of classic management principles but does not follow them blindly, arguing that modern project management is based on people, their values, and the intelligent use of methods, techniques, and emerging technologies.

Download or read book Bid Writing for Project Managers written by David Cleden and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At what stage in the process do commercial projects go wrong? Some of the worst problems (unrealistic objectives, faulty assumptions, and poorly understood constraints) are 'programmed in' at conception when the bid is written, long before the project manager is brought on board. If the bid is misconceived, no amount of clever project management is going to recover the situation. Involving the designated project manager at the bidding stage is becoming the norm in many commercial organizations. Some make the project manager the bid manager so they can direct all aspects of the project's conception. Getting the bid right is the essence of planning for project success, and is the main theme of this book. However, many project managers are unfamiliar with the pitfalls of competitive bidding and don't know how to balance a compelling sales message against a realistic delivery plan. Bid Writing for Project Managers will guide prospective project managers through the bid-writing lifecycle, providing comprehensive guidelines and numerous tips on how to craft a winning bid and how to set the project up with the best possible chance of success.

Download or read book Proactive Project Management written by Morten Fangel and published by Van Haren. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One mindset is that the project management process itself should be lead. You promote proactive project management by planning and evaluating relevant management initiatives – and by adapting the level of effort and the tools for the project’s degree of complexity. The entire book can be considered as a method with tools for such planning and evaluating the project management. Another mindset is that the project management is not only a task for the project managers. The project owners, the participants and other parties must also be proactively involved in the management process. Such co-management means that the analyses and plans created will become more relevant– and have more impact on the project process. The general tool for such an approach, as presented in this book, is to facilitate the management activities. The entire book is a supplement to the existing literature on project management. The new mindsets and methods promote the idea of being a more reflective project manager – and thereby gaining even more benefit from knowledge obtained from other books and from personal experiences.
