Practical Project Management Methods for Nigerians: A Nigerian Construction Guide Based on PMBOK for Construction Professionals
PRACTICAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT METHODS FOR NIGERIANS: A NIGERIAN CONSTRUCTION GUIDE BASED ON PMBOK® FOR CONSTRUCTION PROFESSIONALS
UPGRADED & EXPANDED EDITION – Now Richer with Real-Life Nigerian Case Studies
Do you know why 70% of Nigerian construction projects fail—stalled sites, abandoned works, and inflated budgets?
It’s not just about money. It’s about poor planning, weak monitoring, and lack of professional project management.
This book gives you the tools, strategies, and mindset you need to deliver projects on time, on budget, and with integrity—even in Nigeria’s challenging environment.
· What You’ll Learn Inside
o How to initiate projects the right way—avoiding costly mistakes from Day 1.
o Practical planning tools adapted to Nigeria (no over-theory, just what works).
o How to execute with discipline despite power shortages, Omo Onile issues, and client changes.
o Monitoring & Controlling frameworks blended with street-smart Nigerian tactics.
o How to close projects with integrity so clients trust and recommend you.
o Career growth roadmap for Nigerian project managers—local and international.
o Real-life case studies of failed projects and professional turnarounds.
· Who Is This Book For?
o Nigerian construction professionals (engineers, architects, QS, builders).
o Diaspora clients managing projects back home.
o Students of engineering, architecture, and project management.
o Young professionals who want a solid project management career.
· Why This Book Stands Out
Unlike generic project management books, this one is:
o Written by a Nigerian for Nigerians—localized to our realities.
o Practical, not theoretical—with checklists, tips, and examples you can apply immediately.
o Globally aligned with PMBOK®—so you gain skills respected worldwide.
· Special Bonus
Every chapter ends with street-smart Nigerian insights—what they don’t teach in class, but what makes or breaks a project in real life.
