Publisher's Synopsis
Conventional public management techniques in industrial management projects are often insufficient because they cannot respond or adapt to the dynamism of modern and global markets. This guide shows how to overcome these problems by using project management techniques that expedite industrial development in regional, national, and global settings. Using real–world examples and a systems approach, the author provides a project management model that accounts for all critical interfaces in industrial development projects. He explores every aspect of project planning and organization, as well as cultural and human resource issues. Key areas discussed include how to:
- Schedule and control projects
- Conduct and evaluate project feasibility studies
- Select a project manager and staff the project
- Secure the best experts for various project functions
- Expedite transfer of industrial technology from developed to developing nations
