Project Management is the seventh book from Raj Shankar. How much would be the contribution to the gross domestic product (GDP) if you were to talk about income from industries? Let's talk about the United States, for example. There are hundreds of thousands of products with project managers running those projects. How many of these projects succeed? The failure of a project can have a directly impact on the GDP. This book talks about standardization of the project management methodology for the world. It is becoming increasingly important for companies with mutual interests to work together and for larger companies to campaign for a standard. This book talks about why knowledge of business economics is relevant in the context of project management. The book also talks about areas that are not directly part of conventional project management as we know it today, but are indirectly related due to change in organizational behavior.
Raj Shankar was born in Bangalore and spent eight years growing up in New Jersey — middle school in Sayreville, high school in Lawrenceville, outside Princeton. He met the Bhagavad Gita for the first time in a comparative religion class at Temple University. Nobody had handed it down to him; he came to it the way a stranger walks into a room he has passed his whole life without entering. It changed the direction of his thinking, and it left him with an argument he has been making ever since — that the Gita is far larger, and far more generous, than the people who use it as a weapon. His novel Kem Cho? begins in that classroom. He has practiced immigration law for thirteen years and runs his own firm. It is not a coincidence that his fiction keeps returning to families who crossed an ocean and to the children who inherit the crossing. He has spent his working life with people at the moment a document decides what happens to them. His literary work is published by Three Cats Press, the independent press he founded. He lives near his parents, which is on purpose, and spends most of his time outside the office with them and with his wife. New books, once a month. Nothing else: threecatspress.com
