April 2005 What's New

April 2005

This month in Papers we present Part 2 of our review of the Project Management Institute's latest Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (2004). Part 2 looks in more detail at Sections I & II of the new Guide. In Musings we pass comment on a sales pitch we received that, while muddled in math, raises important issues about tracking the benefits of our projects, see Value Proposition: Real Value or Muddled Math?

Last month, in developing our Wideman Comparative Glossary of Project Management Terms v4.0, we made a surprise discovery about the Use of PMI�'s 2004 Glossary that you should know about.
