Book Description
This book is one that every frustrated project manager would like to place on the desk of those who cook-up projects without involving the troops on the ground. Based on the author's experience managing information technology projects in the US and Canada, "The Little Book of Project Wisdom" is a valuable resource and easy to read. It's an essential quick reference guide for new and seasoned project managers, project sponsors, executives, professional services salespeople, and anyone in customer service. Taking a pragmatic look at many of the "unwritten" challenges faced by project personnel, this compact volume offers common-sense approaches to these problems. While the book refers to challenges faced in the IT industry, it's also a valid reference for projects anywhere and in any sector. Sensitive topics such as isolated ivory-tower executives, overzealous salespeople, stress, and remote foreign resources are covered with respect and in good detail. This book is a major revision of "Give Your Project Wings" and has been updated extensively. This work is not a textbook and offers practical, and sometimes entertaining, real-world perspectives on project management beyond the boring project theory books.
