Understanding project endings is a significant part of project
management, yet there is relatively little work published in this
important area. This book addresses the gap, focusing on the
successful management of project endings, showing how to plan for
the ending of a project, how to create ending competencies, and in
particular, how to successfully manage relations with different
stakeholders of a project as it is coming to an end. Havila and
Salmi use a real-life case in the airline industry to show how the
successful ending project was achieved and in doing so portray
ideas and experiences not typically considered in the field.
Through the case discussion, the complexity of the process is
unveiled and the achievement of success for all parties is
explained. The book portrays three key success factors: ending
competencies, to be developed both at the organizational and
individual levels; efficient management of the business network
around the ending project; and involvement at the strategic
managerial level. It concludes that project endings are often
complex and have far-reaching effects, and therefore, call for
close managerial attention.
