Successful Project Management- Applying Best Practices and Real-World Techniques with Microsoft Project


PRojECt ManagEMEnt has been around for centuries. After all, how  do you think the Pyramids were built? Organizations have come to recognize  that a lot of the work they do is project-oriented. And when they realize that  good project management can save both time and money, that’s about the  time that people like you receive the call to be a project manager. You aren’t the only one. Membership in the Project Management Institute (PMI),  a professional organization for project managers founded in 1969, reached 8,500  in 1990. Its membership topped 100,000 in 2003 and, by the end of 2010, was  330,000. More than 400,000 people have earned the Project Management Profes- sional (PMP) credential. If you have little or no formal education in project management, congratula- tions, you’ve become an accidental project manager. You probably earned the  assignment because you’re dependable and good at organizing your work.  However, you may have only a vague idea of what you’re supposed to do or  what it takes to succeed. To compound the challenge, Microsoft Project can  seem like a Japanese puzzle box—getting a handle on one feature leads to  another feature that you don’t understand.
