"The PMBOK(r) Guide is a professional standard (actually is is a registered standard with the American National Standards Institute - ANSI). It is a technical document and has never been intended to be user friendly. Yet more and more people use this document as a recipe book for how to manage a project. While the intent is good the standard is not designed to be easy to understand or to implement. Our successful author, Cyndi Stackpole, who was project manager of the development of the PMBOK Guide itself, has paved the way toward working successfully with PMI with her recently published: "A Project Manager’s Book of Forms: A Companion to the PMBOK Guide". With the proposed she is taking it to the next logical level and writing a true user’s manual to the standard. The proposed content will be "must-have" for any project manager or those studying for the PMP Exam"--
