  The design and implementation of computer-based information systems is not a smooth process and, of the factors involved, none is more critical than the actual management of the process. This new edition contains theory, practice, and advice on the role of the project leader in managing the team, the individual and the task. Armed with these tools the reader will be able to plan every aspect of an IS project and ensure that it is implemented on time, within budget and to quality standards.
