How to Cheat at IT Project Management

8 reviews
Susan Snedaker

SYNGRESS, 2005

Deceptive title, good tradition management book
This is a solid work on traditional IT project management. I'm not really sure what the whole cheating thing is about. This is the basic IT project management book written in a text book style (questions at the end, checklists, etc.) There is information on politics, team management, managing and tracking implementation and more. It's more holistic than most of the books I've read on this ...

SYNGRESS, 2000

Excellent Coverage of Win2k Net Services
This book is fresh air to someone like myself who has read at least a dozen Windows 2000 books. I get the impression that a lot of the Windows 2000 books were written by people who write books and don't work with the technology. This book doesn't fall into that class. It was great to read this book, because it renewed my faith that a tech book could be written in a way that doesn't put me to ...

SYNGRESS, 2002

Much needed book
I've been working with the Nokia Appliances and the IPSO OS, since they were first released. These boxes loaded with Check Point FW-1 provide top notch security. There are lots of CP books out there, and I was surprised that there wasn't a Nokia book also. I ordered this right when it came out, and the book has been a huge help to me. Its well written, comprehensive, and concise. The UNIX appendx ...
