Description
Keep your project management skills on the cutting edge with A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) – Seventh Edition and The Standard for Project Management. Published by the Project Management Institute (PMI), this latest edition represents a significant paradigm shift in the profession, moving away from a process-oriented approach to a value-delivery and principle-based mindset. It is the go-to resource for project managers navigating today’s rapidly evolving and complex business environments.
The Seventh Edition is structured into two main sections: The Standard for Project Management, which outlines 12 principles of project management that guide effective behavior, and the PMBOK® Guide, which details 8 project performance domains critical for the effective delivery of project outcomes. Unlike previous editions, this guide is designed to be agnostic to development approaches, making it equally applicable to predictive (waterfall), agile, and hybrid methodologies. It includes an expanded section on tailoring the approach to the project’s unique context and a comprehensive chapter on Models, Methods, and Artifacts.
Key Features:
-
Principle-Based Standard: Introduces 12 governing principles (e.g., Stewardship, Team, Stakeholders, Value) that guide project management behavior.

Performance Domains: Replaces Knowledge Areas with 8 broad performance domains (e.g., Team, Planning, Delivery, Uncertainty) focused on outcomes.
