This Handbook presents and discusses leading ideas in the
management of projects. Positioning project management as a domain
much broader and more strategic than simply 'execution management',
this Handbook draws on the insights of over 40 scholars to chart
the development of the subject over the last 50 years or more as an
area of increasing practical and academic interest. It suggests we
could be entering an emerging 'third wave' of analysis and
interpretation following its early technical and operational
beginnings and the subsequent shift to a focus on projects and
their management. Topics dealt with include: the historical
evolution of the subject; its theoretical base; professionalism;
business and societal context; strategy; organization; governance;
innovation; overruns; risk; information management; procurement;
relationships and trust; knowledge management; practice and teams.
This handbook is of particular relevance to those interested in the
research issues underlying project management.
