More Literature about Project Business Management

Literature on Project Business Management is astonishingly scarce, given the relevance of this business discipline and the challenges and risks it brings to all parties involved.  Entire national economies depend on it. For many organizations, it is a driver for agility and innovation. For a growing number of companies and individuals, it is the primary source of income.

The following books are those I am aware of. If you are know more literature, please send a message here.

Customer projects are a high-risk business on both sides, customers and contractors, but the dynamics of this business have so far been mostly ignored in literature. The book Project Business Management fills this gap."
