Book Description,
Modern project management, as developed in the post–World War II era, was initially employed to manage large government projects for the military and construction and space industries. It has subsequently evolved and been widely adopted in some form by most large commercial companies. Nowadays, these same project management techniques are well on their way into many medium and small companies. However, as you may guess, what works well for a huge government project may not be the optimal solution for an innovative startup or even a smaller entrepreneurial group within a large company. Those early projects had many unique challenges, such as efficiently managing hundreds of subcontractors, that project management was able to address. The ability to meet these challenges created the momentum that carried project management into the mainstream.
