Washington, DC —02/03/07, You are about to see the world through the eyes of a contrarian. This book challenges the reader to abandon commonly held beliefs about managing people and processes to deliver a project.
The author draws inspiration from both pop culture and ancient history. Generous anecdotal evidence, user templates, and visual illustrations greatly support the author’s mission to let you in on the secrets for shaking and moving projects through the organization.
This highly readable book is recommended for employees in every layer of the business organization:
- from the executives in boardrooms who charter ill fated projects,
- to the project leaders who defend their project train from robbers,
- to the functional employees trying to survive the run without provisions.
Let Mr. Langlois guide you on new paths though portfolio planning and project execution. It’s a fun trip full of keen insights and laugh out loud satire. You are going to enjoy this journey.
