Project Visualization and Why it Matters

"Project Visualization and Why It Matters" covers the fundamentals of project visualization and then reviews tools for helping others see what is going on. Some of these tools are very familiar and widely available. Others are less familiar and more focused. Such tools have proved their value in the aerospace/defense, finance, and pharmaceutical industries by combining easy IMS data extraction, historical visualization, and scenario demonstration. They let project managers spend less time preparing for project reviews while delivering more effective schedule status, analysis, and recommendations.
