Managing a computer project is a complex process: There are lots of deliverables to produce, plans and budgets to satisfy and different people to report to.

This book is a practical guide for all project managers. * Will enable managers to manage and build better systems on time and within budget * Packed with examples, hints and tips * Contains many Q&A sessions, indicating common questions and answers found by experienced project managers
