Welcome to our Conceptbox - an online resource for project management tools, methods and theories.

The concepts are organized in the following table, inspired by the Project Canvas and in line with the four perspectives on projects:

PURPOSE, PEOPLE, COMPLEXITY and UNCERTAINTY.


This page is mostly oriented for project management information-seekers students or practitioners.
