DESCRIPTION:
Excellent resource! Design professionals should own this. I got this as recommended reading for the Landscape Architectural Registration Examination (LARE) sections 1 and 2. It was by far the most read-able and informative book of the recommended books (also got Ready, Set, Practice by Sharky and Construction Contracts by Hinze). I had already taken a college course in project management and done some PM at work and this book's emphasis on PM for design professionals really puts all the pieces together -great stories and real-life examples to illustrate PM principles. Also, Bill is a University of Oregon alum - which is where I got my MLA - GO DUCKS!I actually bought a copy for to. Very informative Lauren E. Thornhill I purchased this book because it is on CLARB's website for the LARE. I found it very helpful and one of the more fun books to read. It was the cheapest of the books I could purchase for Section 1 and the way Ramroth approaches topics it was an interesting read. He also summarizes each chapter at the end which made for a very helpful study guide. Much of the stuff is common sense but until you really think about project management, it might not be as obvious.. Great book for architects Written by someone with a clear understanding of the design profession, this book rings true and is a great guidebook for new project managers.
