Allan has fully revised and updated her classic 2004 title, Project Management, to incorporate considerable developments during the past decade, including: the development and wide-scale acceptance of formal project management methodologies; the use of social media to communicate and disseminate information about projects and the large shift in the types of project library and information workers may be involved in. The text is supported by practical case studies drawn from a wide range of LIS organizations at local, regional, national and international levels. These examples provide an insight into good practice for the practitioner, from an individual working in a voluntary organization on an extremely limited budget, to someone involved in an international project. Content covered includes: an introduction to project management, project workers, and the library and information profession; different approaches to project management, the project cycle, the people side of projects, and management of change; discussion of project methodologies, project management software, open source software, collaborative working software, and use of social media; project initiation, communication, analysis, and project briefs; developing project infrastructure, scheduling, working out the finances, and carrying out a detailed risk analysis; and working in partnerships, in diverse and virtual teams, and managing change.If you are an LIS professional involved in project work of any kind, whether on a managerial, practical, academic or research level, this is an invaluable resource for you.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Book Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe No-Nonsense Guide to Project Management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBarbara Allan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBook Genre:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBusiness, Nonfiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries Detail:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN #\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e9781783302031\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eASIN #\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e1783302038\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition Language:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e English\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eJanuary 1, 2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePDF File Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe_No-Nonsense_Guide_to_Project_Management_-_Barbara_Allan.pdf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePDF File Size\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e896 KB\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Readers.ae","offers":[{"title":"Paper Cover","offer_id":44083976372323,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hard Cover","offer_id":44083976405091,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/9838\/3715\/files\/PDF-EPUB-The-No-Nonsense-Guide-to-Project-Management-by-Barbara-Allan-Download.jpg?v=1774626851","url":"https:\/\/readersuae.com\/products\/the-no-nonsense-guide-to-project-management-by-barbara-allan","provider":"Readers.ae","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
