Critical Chain Project Management by Lawrence P. Leach
|
Purpose: Knowledge and procedures to develop Critical Chain project plans and to apply Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM).
BUSINESS/MANAGEMENT
For
project teams needing to get projects
done in less time, all the time, Critical
Chain Project Management provides
the method to create unprecedented
project success. Critical Chain Project
Management (CCPM) manages the
uncertainty that causes project failure
and project team stress. Unlike complex
1,000 page books reiterating complicated
methods that haven't worked for forty
years, Critical Chain Project
Management helps you focus on the
vital few things that ensure project
success.
Critical Chain Project Management provides practical procedures to build and use CCPM plans. It provides a straightforward explanation of the Theory of Constraints (TOC) underlying CCPM. The text includes many figures and examples that enhance understanding. Hundreds of project teams have already used CCPM to achieve new performance levels, while improving team satisfaction. University classes use Critical Chain Project Management as a text.
Critical Chain Project Management provides
a basic reference for anyone interested
in improving project success. This
includes, but is not limited to:
· Project managers.
· Project team members.
· Managers of project managers.
· Project stakeholders, including
customers.
· Managers with workers assigned to
project teams.
· Educators teaching project
management.
· Consultants and other specialists.
Don't miss out on the first real
improvement in project management in
over forty years. You'll wonder how you
ever managed without CCPM.
