The track record of IT projects is poor. Less than a third of IT
projects deliver what they said they would, on schedule and on
budget. The major cause of IT project failure is not, as you might
expect, poor IT leadership or difficult technology but poor
business leadership. One of the reasons for this is that, unlike
their IT peers, business managers often get little training or
education in project delivery, let alone the special case
represented by an IT project. Business Leadership for IT Projects
addresses the gap by providing tools and ideas that are applicable
to all sizes of IT projects, from those in large multinational
corporations, down to small growing businesses. It sets out the key
project touchpoints where business leadership can have a major
impact on project success. The book combines psychological research
and project best practice to create a practical toolbox that can be
dipped into, as needs arise, or followed as an overall approach to
IT project leadership. The toolbox weaves together three key
strands of thought. First, that the concept of value should be at
the forefront of project design and delivery. Second, that business
managers need to take active leadership of IT projects to secure
value. Third, that project teams need tools to slow down their
thinking and ensure that actions and decisions are well thought
through.
