“Moraveck conveys a broad conceptual understanding and an overview of the fundamentals of project management and how these basic concepts and mechanisms may be applied in the real world. This book will be a significant value-add to information systems project managers who need to encourage innovations within the team, timely, executions, and high quality project completions.” – Dr. Raj Sinha, Professor, National University, USA
"Moraveck skillfully delineates best practices of information systems project management (ISPM). Her years of experience in public and private sectors are vividly sketched in this book through her insider views and ISPM wisdom. She highlights the value of risk assessment teams and offers insight and tips to mitigate risk, minimize delays, and manage unforeseen outcomes, using a fresh approach desperately needed at both the traditional and the emerging organization.” - Dr. Moe Saouli, Adjunct Professor, Argosy University, USA
