Kenndu nemendum að ná árangri í verkefnastjórnun eins og hún er stunduð í dag, með sjöundu útgáfu Successful Project Management eftir Gido, Clements og Baker. Þessi metsölubók lýsir því hvernig skipuleggja á og stýra verkefnateymum, allt frá áætlanagerð og tímasetningu til kostnaðarstjórnunar. Kaflar hafa verið endurskoðaðir til samræmis við PMBOK þekkingarforðann svo bestu starfshættir séu tryggðir. Fjallað er um takmarkanir verkefna, hagaðila, verkefnasáttmálann og hvernig verkefni styðja við stefnu skipulagsheildarinnar.

Kennslufræðilegir þættir festa í sessi þau atriði sem ráða úrslitum í verkefnastjórnun. Nemendur æfa markviss samskipti, ný raundæmi kveikja umræður og skoðanaskipti og nýjar frásagnir úr atvinnulífinu sýna hvernig beita má hugtökunum á vinnustað. Þá er unnið með Microsoft Project.
