The PMBOK(r) Guide is a professional standard (actually is is a registered standard with the American National Standards Institute - ANSI). It is a technical document and has never been intended to be user friendly. Yet more and morepeople use this document as a recipe book for how to manage a project. While the intent is good the standard is not designed to be easy to understand or toimplement. Our successful author, Cyndi Stackpole, who was project manager ofthe development of the PMBOK Guide itself, has paved the way toward working successfully with PMI with her recently published: "A Project Manager's Book ofForms: A Companion to the PMBOK Guide". With the proposed she is taking it tothe next logical level and writing a true user's manual to the standard. The author has already approached PMI and they are reviewing her proposal with an eye toward co-branding this book as was done for the forms book. Because of the close nature of the proposed to the PMBOK Guide we will either need to co-brand or potentially pay licensing fees each year to PMI. Either way - the proposed content will be "must-have" for any project manager or those studying for the PMP Exam INDICE: Preface. Acknowledgments. Chapter 1 Introduction.
