Building a Project Work Breakdown Structure

Unlike other books in this area, this resource not only shows readers what they can do, but shows them how to do it. An organizing, visual communication, team-building, commitment-gaining, and project planning tool, the work breakdown structure (WBS) helps project managers communicate with their teams, clients, and management. This book provides an eight step process that facilitates the development of the WBS. The process defines the project through its deliverables and validates the initial target date by critical path analysis. The result is a clear visualization of the project's objectives, deliverables, activities, and schedule.
