Over the past two decades, the science of management has achieved tangible progress in its concepts, foundations, and principles, gaining the attention of both behavioral and quantitative schools of thought in administration. On the quantitative front, management scholars have focused on introducing modern techniques to production, management, and marketing, and integrating information systems into both administrative and production processes. This has helped develop methods for quality control and direct oversight of the performance of various organizations and investment projects. As for the behavioral approach, it has focused on promoting ideas that emphasize the importance of the human element and the necessity of providing both private and public protection for individuals as productive members. Indeed, the human element is the most crucial component of production in any developmental, investment, or service organization or project. These varied interests converge on a single goal: the welfare of the organization and how to manage its projects in a way that enables it to achieve its objectives efficiently and effectively. The five chapters of this book have been designed to clarify these matters and to acquaint the reader with the general and modern ideas surrounding project management and the application of modern administrative principles in planning, executing, evaluating, and structuring development projects to elevate them to the highest level.
