The PMBOK guide is supposed to be basis of project management knowledge. As the name suggests it should be used to guide the project management in professional life. How useful are the ITTOs put in the guide in real life?
Does it appear to have lot of tacit knowledge which just cannot be used without understanding the context? Saving Changes...

It's a great resource for methodology and I refer to it often when I am not sure how to handle a given scenario. It gives me the "by the book" answer. Saving Changes...

In my opinion.......It may not be practical to use the PMBOK on daily or regular basis, however this also depends on the nature of your job. The PMBOK should be considered as PM resource. In practical project execution it can be used as a reference or go to resource. Saving Changes...
