Delve deeper into the practical tools described in the PMBOK Guide—Sixth Edition Follow detailed examples that illustrate effective project management methods Master project management applications in preparation for the PMP exam Graduate from theory to practice with powerful tools and techniques for success Concepts are only valuable once they are applied—and then they become a skill set that gets results.

A Project Manager’s Book of Tools and Techniques is a practical manual for putting essential project management concepts into practice.
