Need a simple (!) book on Project Management! Will this one do?

By Vincent van Wylick, July 12, 2008

project manager.jpgI’m a big fan of the easily digestible book™ format, like “The One Minute Manager,” “…entrepreneur,” and “What the CEO wants you to know,” all of which are excellent choices, if you’re looking for one yourself.

Now it’s project management’s turn, and I’m thinking of this one:

“The One-Page Project Manager – Communicate and Manage Any Project With a Single Sheet of Paper.”

I was wondering if any of you had read it, can comment on it, or can suggest a better, but equally simple book to read? Articles or websites are also welcome!

    Hi Vincent,

    I would like to suggest PM Hut for Project Management Articles. Excellent articles by top PMs from around the world are posted every day.

    Jeremy, Berkun’s book is probably the best PM book around I know, but it’s far from short or easily digestible.

    Maybe if someone took that book and ripped out all software development related topics, maybe, just maybe, it’d qualify… =)

    I’m sure there’s a summary of that book somewhere… I actually searched for ‘project management’ and ‘book’ on techiteasy, but somehow that excellent post of Cecil’s didn’t appear.

    @PM Hut: thanks for the link, you built up a nice collection of PM stuff there.
