Critics Review
Sustainability is at the heart of this textbook, clearly showing students how projects may be successful whilst creating value for stakeholders, all backed by a wide variety of case studies
– Daniel Clarke Hagan
This book provides a rather soft perspective on Project Management, as opposed to the ′engineering′ perspective as though Project Management was a hard science i.e you plan it right in the beginning, you get it right in the end. The role of people, organization, leadership and contemporary challenges has been emphasised throughout. – Mr Kashif Malik
A great addition to the library. – Mr Paul Edward Matthews
A very good and balanced book. I′m looking forward to work with it together with the students.
– Mrs Gunilla Stensdotter Andersson
