Network Manager's Handbook - Building, Budgeting, Planning, Procuring, Staffing and Scheduling the System (Paperback, Ed)

REAL PLATFORMS • REAL PRODUCTS • REAL BUDGETS • REAL-WORLD SOLUTIONS

No other book covers life on the line with all the daily operations involved in running a business-scale network – and being a corporate officer at the same time -- like Network Manager’s Handbook.

While many other books talk about networking technologies, author Nathan Muller tackles the real make-or-break operations and procedures such as strategic planning, documentation, retrofitting, “managing up,” and much more. This unique survival guide delves into everything you didn’t learn in school but need to know, such as:
* Minimizing risk during procurements
* Calculating the “true cost”
* Downsizing
* Operating the Help Desk
* Asset identification
* Systems integration
* Network security
* Outsourcing
* Contingency planning

Muller provides the insights that only a veteran with real-world experience can offer, including:
* Why design is one-half the battle and implementation is the other
* Secrets of successful financial planning
* How to effectively negotiate service agreements
* The role of the communications department
* The most effective way to manage, evaluate, and schedule technical staff

Network Manager’s Handbook may well be the best career investment any IT professional can make.
