From the Inside Flap

Learn to use the best-of-breed methods and tools for success in any project.

There are so many things that can fail on a project. It can be daunting. Failure to complete on time. Failure to stay under budget. Many projects fail to deliver a viable product that satisfies the needs of the customer. These and a multitude of other failures are usually the result of poor project management. Although there are many methods for managing projects, most are inadequately understood. Project managers often fail to choose the appropriate management method for a given project. Sometimes they choose the correct method but fail to use it properly. Fortunately, there is a resource that will teach you to use the most up-to-date tools and methods for project management.

Effective Project Management provides updated and expanded coverage of all major project management methods, including Traditional, Agile, and Extreme. This market-leading guide offers step-by-step instructions, in-depth case studies, flowcharts, figure and tables, and more, in a single, easy-to-understand volume.

Author Robert K. Wysocki's winning approach to project management has been helping practitioners and students alike for over two decades. He presents the pros and cons of each method and shows readers how to select and use best-of-breed project management tools and templates for each management task. Now in its eighth edition, this popular guide includes four chapters of new material and a streamlined content structure that incorporates feedback from instructors and students of previous editions.

Highlights of the new edition include:

  • Coverage of the newly released PMBOK® Sixth Edition body of knowledge
  • New chapters on strategic project management, collaborative project teams, hybrid project management framework, and VUCA in the digital world
  • Detailed coverage of Kanban and Scrumban methodologies
  • Learn Agile Project Management
  • Expansion of the Enterprise PSO to support EPMM
  • Companion website that contains new exercises and solutions, PowerPoint lecture slides, enhanced case studies, and discussion questions

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

My entire professional life has been focused on project management in one way or another. First as a practitioner starting in 1963. PMI wouldn't arrive on the scene until 1969 and so I was on my own. As a result I'm self-taught and all of my books have grown out of my practice of the profession. I grew up to be a consultant, then a trainer, and now an author. I'm currently writing my 22nd book tentatively titled "A Practical Enterprise-level Project Management Model." My signature book is "Effective Project Management: Traditional, Agile, Extreme." Now in its 6th edition it is used in over 300 colleges and universities worldwide and is also a best seller in the professional reference market. Being a best-seller in those very different markets is unique. All of my books are theoretically sound and PMBOK compliant but they grew out of my own personal experiences as a project management consultant. I hope you enjoy the practical nature of what I have learned and have shared about the practice of project management.

    Project Management is a chore of a class and may very well be, as an abstract concept, my nemesis. I will never be a project manager and even though I read this book completed the class and received a solid grade (88) in the class, I'm still not fully sure what project managers do and when I ask people in my field this question, it's usually met with laughter and "I know right". Seriously though, what do they do???

    "Effective Project Management: Traditional, Agile, Extreme, Hybrid" by Robert K. Wysocki is well laid out with good organization so it makes it easy to read and follow. The author does assume a certain amount of knowledge but at the same time, he walks the reader through the important process points. He describes and works through the various project management types featured. I'm glad that it focuses on 4 types because I've read some project management books that cast too wide a net and it just ends up jumbled. This book keeps it to the four (traditional, agile, extreme, and hybrid) which makes the focus for the reader much easier. I keep this book at my work desk and have been referring to it a lot for ideas and clarity. It has been well worth the time to read and re-read.

    As the subject matter expert in a number of areas in my workplace, I've been drafted into the role of project manager multiple times. I've been stumbling through things (with lots of nodding when people bring up fancy technical PM terms), but I want to be better prepared to successfully lead my team. This book is definitely more of a textbook, but as someone who just finished grad school, I'm a-ok with textbooks. This book provides an excellent overview of project management from start to finish. From defining what is a project, to the various methodologies, you'll be on better ground after finishing this book. I feel equipped with the tools provided to really wow on my next project! Plus, I finally picked up all that fancy PM lingo!

    Great starter course, or, refresher, helps you understand how to define a project, building the fundamentals around the scope of the project, building collaborative teams, planning, launching and closure of the project. It's the full landscape from A to Z. I found this educational and informative, it did provide me with additional tools to transform my professional life. Certainly recommend this for any leader - it's highly helpful and guides you to support your operations and teams.
