A book for any manager who has to deliver projects at work,
particular those handling small to medium-sized projects in
addition to their usual responsibilities. By the end of the first
stage of the book, readers will know how to build a 'defensible
plan' for successful project implementation, including a
step-by-step sequence for pulling together all the necessary
resources and support. Stage two deals with implementing the plan
under proper control, through motivated and well-led people. This
is a practical methodology that is applicable to projects as
diverse as introducing new systems or procedures, launching a new
product, opening a new branch, factory or department, organising a
conference or moving offices. (Kirkus UK)
This book is written for all managers, in any function, who are
tasked with delivering projects at work. It is of particular
interest to those managers who have to deal with small- to
medium-sized projects in addition to their usual responsibilities.
Straightforward and user friendly, this book takes the reader
through a series of steps which results in the effective delivery
of a project. Managing Projects at Work breaks down into two
stages. By the end of stage one the reader will know how to build a
'Defensible Plan' for successful project implementation. This
process, which follows a step-by-step sequence, draws out in a
unique way all the resources and support needed for an effective
project delivery. The outcome is a confident project manager who
can justify and secure what is needed for the stress-free
implementation of the project. Stage two deals with implementing
the 'Defensible Plan' under proper control, through motivated and
well-led people. Gordon Webster's approach suits projects as
diverse as introducing new systems or procedures, launching a new
product, opening a new branch, factory or department; even
organizing a conference or moving offices. Its practical
methodology has been developed as a result of working over many
years with managers whose projects had gone off track, usually for
the same reasons. From these observations the unique and entirely
effective 'Defensible Plan' and its implementation were born. By
adopting this approach readers can build in success from the
beginning and see consistent project delivery, along with control
of their working life.
