The Oxford Handbook of Project Management 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.
