Value within project management practices for executives - 2009-09-04
Reviewer Rating:
This is that book that helps project management professionals tune up the key skills involved in helping organizations realize the value of project management.

In today's economy there are two things organizations cannot afford - 1) people and skills that don't bring value and 2) relying on luck to execute strategic objectives.

Too often through lack of clarity about the connection between the projects and the organization's strategic goals project management professionals are viewed as unnecessary.

If that is a threat risk in your professional life or your organization this is the book that can help you manage it and manage it well.
