Holistic approach
to PMP exam preparation-- going beyond the Technical!
“The good physician
treats the disease; the great physician treats the patient who has the disease”
-- William Osler
PMP Exam preparation books that you see these days are
merely: 1) giving information on the subject of Project Management within the
context of The PMBOK Guide [5tth Edition]; 2) providing mock exams; 3) providing
some exam pointers…that is basically it! What
is being overlooked at is the whole person taking it. The person’s state of
mind could actually be one of the many factors why a person cannot cross the
“abyss” between him/her and the PMP certification that he/she is after.
PMP Companion is the book that approaches both the person’s
psyche and the complementary project management know-how…both of which are
needed to increase one’s chances of passing the PMP exam.
Pure information, mock exams (believe me – mock exams are
“very easy” compared to the actual PMP exam), and some pointers are for
“treating the disease”. This is the
reason why the PMP Companion was written: to provide a holistic approach
(“treating the person who has the disease”) to your PMP exam preparation.
PMP Companion provides both solid technical project management info (just-right
level of info) AND a set of tools for the mind called PMP Mind Tools®.
