Winner of 2020 PMI David I. Cleland Project Management Literature
Award
This book is a complete project management toolkit for project leaders
in business, research and industry.
Projects are approved and financed to generate benefits. Project
Management: A Benefit Realisation Approach proposes a complete
framework that supports this objective - from project selection and
definition, through execution, and beyond implementation of deliverables
until benefits are secured.
The book is the first to explain the creation of organisational value by
suggesting a complete, internally-consistent and theoretically rigorous
benefit-focused project management methodology, supported with an
analytical technique: benefit engineering. Benefit engineering offers a
practical approach to the design and maintenance of an organisation's
project portfolio.
Building upon the authors' earlier successful book, Project Management
for the Creation of Organisational Value, this comprehensively revised
and expanded new book contains the addition of new chapters on project
realisation. The book offers a rigorous explanation of how benefits
emerge from a project. This approach is developed and strengthened -
resulting in a completely client-oriented view of a project.
Senior executives, practitioners, students and academics will find in
this book a comprehensive guide to the conduct of projects, which
includes robust models, a set of consistent principles, an integrated
glossary, enabling tools, illustrative examples and case studies.
