"Unlike most project management books, which focus solely on the nuts and bolts of managing single projects, The Portable MBA in Project Management focuses on the strategy, organization, and processes at work in the three tiers of a successful project-driven organization–the project, the program, and the enterprise. By integrating many critical success factors in this comprehensive guide, Eric Verzuh brings a new vision to the art and science of project management." –Chris Capossela, General Manager, Microsoft Project "Verzuh delivers with impact once again. Like his first book, this one is a ‘must have’ for all professionals in project management. Everyone–from project managers to CEOs of project-based organizations–can’t help but be successful after reading and applying the principles established here. This is truly a significant contribution from a first-rate author." –Ralph Kliem, author of The Project Manager’s Emergency Kit "Eric Verzuh has produced another solid, readable book. In the tradition of good project management, he has gone ‘cross functional’ and added outside expertise to his own impressive knowledge. Project management is about much more than technical tools, and so this book also explains the proper business approaches to running a project-driven organization." –Dr. Denis F.
