Project managers need more than just technical skills; they need the right communication skills to succeed, and this book will show you how to gain them.
Project management is one of the fastest-growing occupations in the world. The Project Management Institute has seen membership growth of more than 1000% in the last 10 years. But while many of these managers know how to plan a successful project in theory, very few have the practical tools needed to navigate the politics of today's corporate world.
Filled with real-world examples, Project Management That Works gives you the tools you need to:
communicate with your team as well as stakeholders
get their teams to function well
run fewer and more productive meetings
turn around failing projects
utilize data properly to make emotional conversations unemotional
know when a project is really done
The only book that addresses the real challenges project managers face today, this is an accessible and invaluable tool that will show you how to accomplish this mission-no matter the obstacles.
