A Project Manager’s Book of Tools and Techniques
You will not see all the 125+ techniques that are in the Guide to the Project Management Body

to describe, such as expert judgment, quality improvement methods, or meetings. Some techniques
are so descriptive that you don’t really need anyone to explain them, such as ground rules,
financing, or feedback. Some techniques are not included because they are general management
techniques, for which volumes have already been written, for example, leadership, negotiation, and
team building.
