Market Management and Project Business Development (Paperback): Hedley Smyth Market Management and Project Business Development (Paperback)
Hedley Smyth
R1,802 Discovery Miles 18 020 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Market Management and Business Development in Projects is a guide to the theory of marketing and selling projects in business, a process termed business development. Successfully marketing and selling a project to investors is so crucial an element of project management that it dictates whether the project is funded, and as a result, whether it can go ahead. But marketing and promotion are often not part of the competent project manager's skills set. Moreover, most books available are limited to the selling of construction projects, leading to potential blind spots in this area for students, specialists and practitioners which have potential to threaten the success of real-life projects on the ground. This book is the first of its kind to provide a set of key principles and guidelines to marketing all types of projects to all types of customers, both B2B and B2C, setting out a range of theoretical developments and applying them throughout to practical scenarios and cases to link theory to practice. Smyth structures his guide around three stages in the process of marketing a project: corporate management, business development and project execution.This provides guidance through every stage of a project, from its inception all the way through to its launch to market. This book is valuable reading for all students and specialists in project management, as well as project managers in business, management, the built environment, or indeed any industry.

Property Companies and the Construction Industry in Britain (Paperback): Hedley Smyth Property Companies and the Construction Industry in Britain (Paperback)
Hedley Smyth
R1,089 Discovery Miles 10 890 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book was the first detailed and systematic account of the property and construction sectors of the British economy. Developing out of a materialist theoretical perspective, Dr Smyth provides an alternative explanation of the different characteristics of the two sectors and rejects traditional notions of the 'backwardness' of the construction sector. The specific historical experience of the Second World War and the rebuilding it necessitated, provides the basis of this analysis and it is argued that the particular divergencies of the construction sector stem from periods of wider economic crisis. Similar periods of crisis have shaped the property sector which, dependent upon the complex relationship between ground rent, the value of the building and building rent, cannot be understood in terms of 'urban rent'. Property companies and the construction industry in Britain challenges both established and radical thinking and its historical account of the development, management and production of the built environment in the years since 1939 addresses some of the central concerns of human geography today.
