PMHUB-G Misconceptions About the PMBOK Guide

Listening to PMP candidates, project managers, and students of
management and project management, I've learned that there are some
misconceptions about what the PMBOK Guide is. Some think that it's
intended as a textbook on project management. Others think that it
describes some kind of project management methodology. Yet others
have the notion that it's meant as a study guide for the examination
component of the PMP credential. Some even think that the PMP exam is
on something called "PMBOK" (whatever that is) and that the Guide to
the PMBOK is a study guide or textbook covering the topic of "PMBOK."

I've like to cleared up some of the misconceptions in the following
blog post:
