Managing High-Technology Programs and Projects, 2 Ed
Don’t just manage a project…master it! Managing High-Technology Programs and Projects 2nd Edition As diverse as high-technology programs and projects are, there are as many factors that they hold in common, such as time and budget parameters and their multidisciplinary nature. Yet there has never been a single source that every project manager can consult to manage any kind of project, from start-up to close-out. Managing High-Technology Programs and Projects, Second Edition is just such a book.
The Design Secrets series brings the reader inside the creative process, unlike most design books that only show the final design. Each design project selected is illustrated in detail from concept to completion and all the stages in-between and includes the designer's insights and inspirations of the project. Promoting a greater understanding of design, this book presents 50 real-life product design projects with a behind-the-scenes look. Uncovered are the creative process, the challenges, and the solutions that produced the innovative end result.
Custom handbags and handcrafted purses are hotter than ever - bags have become the trendy way to show off personal style. As knitters move away from the scarf, bags are replacing them as the most popular small project to make. Whether knitted, crocheted, or felted, there are endless ways to personalize and customize a bag.From a tiny pouch to carry an iPod to a generous tote based on nineteenth-century carpet bags to a felted messenger-style bag to a delicate purse with handles made of bracelets, knitters and crocheters will find loads of practical projects and inventive inspiration from the designers.
Project managers who regard hall monitors and drill sergeants as role models need to spend some time with Essentials of Project Control. This book civilizes and humanizes the conventional view of control. No longer the bad boy in a manager’s plan-organize- direct-control job description, modern control envelops us like the wise advice of a country doctor. We readily comply with the doctor’s sensible prescription because it is good for us, and it works.
