Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EVERY PROJECT IS A JOURNEY. Many of us still approach project management as a set of best practices and processes that follow a structured and linear path to delivering a project's intended outcome. But what often happens during the course of a project is that communication generates confusion, schedules get off track, sponsors disengage, and teams can end up far away from their intended destinations. You'll be well prepared to address whatever might go off course in any project if you anticipate and plan ahead by following the guiding principles outlined in this book. With Project Orienteering, author Denise Brinkmeyer takes readers through every phase of a project's journey, with attention to a project's most variable elements--its people. She argues that the most important skill we bring to a project is an ability to adjust, flex, and pivot in ways that remain sensitive to the delicate balance among time requirements, funding allotments, and a project's overall value. Brinkmeyer speaks primarily to project managers but has something to say to everyone involved: from stakeholders, sponsors, and project teams to customers and end users. She shows that successfully achieving a vision within a project's designated budget is possible, as is creating a collaborative team environment in which everyone remains focused on the value being delivered, expectations are aligned along the way, and team members practice an adaptive, predictive approach to navigating the project's changing terrain.

Download or read book Off the Beaten Path written by Nicholas James Errico and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though project managers serve as leaders of change, the fact is that we are not changing ourselves. Over the last twenty years, the total percentage of failed business projects has not decreased. It is time for a fresh perspective on the profession of project management-a perspective that questions everything-so that we can continue turning fledgling projects into full-blown successes. This new angle focuses on the art rather than the science of project management, presenting instructive stories and critiques rather than dry theory and process. With his characteristic humor, author and longtime project manager Nicholas James Errico defines the task of project management as predicting the future and increasing the likelihood of project success. He explains that a good project manager will turn projects into graceful swans-on the outside, the project should glide along smoothly even while under the water, feet are paddling like crazy. Errico's keen observations and advice cover both broad topics (such as comprehending the contract) and fine details (such as the importance of the team buying into the plan). As project managers, it's crucial that we widen our perspectives and challenge our preconceived notions in order to achieve flawless project success.
