A recent study showed that only 53 percent of projects come in on
budget and only 49 percent on schedule. So what does it take to be
an on-time finisher? Successful project management may seem like a
quixotic pursuit, but it doesn’t have to be. Searcy, a certified
Project Management Professional as well as a librarian, takes
readers through mastering the key skills that will make it happen:
initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, and closing. Applying
project management principles in a library-project context, this
book provides to-the-point guidance on running effective and
productive meetings by using a checklist approach; treating people
fairly while openly sharing information; ways to simplify workflows
by choosing the most suitable software program; how to write a
project charter; the agile concept of self-organizing teams;
identifying risks and planning for the downside; managing scope
creep by maintaining realistic expectations; and using a checklist
to close projects so they stay closed. Library staff at all levels
will be feel confident planning and executing projects with
Searcy’s expert tutelage at hand.
