    Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book for any web or IT project manager
    This is a great book for anyone interested in project management, or has been given the PM role without any prior training. It's also good for those of us who already think we know it all - I'm sure there'll be gems in it for everyone.

With advice on warning signals to help people stay on the right track, "The Principles of Project Management: Run Projects on Time and To Budget Using ... Read More



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - short, but to the point

    This is a short book, but it's packed with useful information about project management. It neatly avoids getting bogged down with PM jargon, instead cutting to the core concepts. It's not designed to get you through a project management qualification (though it might help!), but will certainly help you to become more efficient at managing projects, which at the end of the day is what *really* matters. Aimed at people who want to get projects done, even if they're not officially 'project managers' ... Read More

    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Project Managment Guide
    'The Principles of Project Management' is one of those books that does nearly everything right in my eyes. A small footprint (204 pages = don't say more than you need to), fantastic design, and good writing and content. It's no secret that sitepoint is one of my favorite technical publishers out in the field today and nearly every one of their books gets 5 stars from this reviewer.

    This book is no different.

    Project Management is a difficult thing to do and do effectively. Managing ... Read More
