New Webinar: "The History of Project Management" (April 22, 2010)

The latest webinar in our series of educational offerings is now available for registration.

The Pyramid of Giza, the Colosseum, and the Transcontinental Railroad are all great historical projects from the past four millennia. When we look back we tend to look at these as great architectural or engineering works. Project management tends to be overlooked, and yet the core principles were used extensively in these projects.

This webinar takes a hard look at the history of project management, how it evolved, and presents some quite remarkable results. Namely, that project management did not just appear in the last 100 years but has been in steady evolution over at least the past 4,500 years.

New insights emerge when dissecting historical projects through a project management lens, and Mark Kozak-Holland brings this to life in his analysis. You will walk away with new insights and an interest to look at these projects more closely for lessons that are just as applicable today as when the projects were initiated.

Mark Kozak-Holland, principal author of the best-selling "Lessons from History" series of books has a new textbook coming out on the history of project management. In this webinar, he is offering our members an exclusive sneak preview in advance of the book's publication.

There is a $9.95 fee for registering for this event. It is open to both PMAC members and non-members alike, and 100% of all registration fees go to the association.

The webinar is on April 22nd, 2010 from Noon to 1:30pm Eastern time.
