Project Risk and Opportunity Management: The Owner's Perspective
Autor Agnar Johansen, Nils Olsson, George Jergeas, Asbjørn Rolstadåsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 apr 2019
This book is about opportunity management seen from the owner’s perspective. It will be an invaluable resource for those studying Engineering both undergraduate and postgraduate and set out ways in which projects should be managed from planning to completion. This book is also a great tool for those working in project management and the construction industry. While there are many books that demonstrate effective construction management, this book is the first of its kind to emphasise that there is opportunity in uncertainty, and possibility in the unexpected.
