Getting a Project Done On Time gives you quick, easy-to-read, start-to-finish guidelines on all the essential project management skills and lessons you need.

"Projects, where several people are responsible for several independent tasks, are like long and complicated relay races." To help you complete your assignment on time and with the desired results, this handy guide gives you a wealth of ready-to-use tools, checklists, tips, and more |
