Stakeholder-oriented Project Management: Tools and Concepts is about managing construction projects that are characterized by complexity and uncertainty. The management of such unpredictable projects requires a stakeholder-oriented approach focused on the interests of all stakeholders: powerful ones and those having little influence, experts and laymen, local and foreign parties involved. The author offers best management practices, concepts and computer tools to support this approach. The book is of interest to students and lecturers in civil engineering and business administration as well as to practitioners interested in deepening their insights into these fields.
