Projects are not a walk in the park John S Chapman

Without a doubt, the most successful project managers know the art of project management. That art may be in how to apply some technical aspect of project management or from a seemingly unrelated experience. This requires that project managers know more than the technique, but also the timing. Think of the comedian telling a joke... if the pause too long or not long enough, the joke falls flat. Great project managers use a technique with grace and perfect timing. John Chapman's 'Projects are not a walk in the park' does just that. Practical anecdotes with application comments and questions. Read it in one sitting, or better yet read one chapter a week. Let it sink in. Apply it in your daily work. Use the allegories in meetings. Next week, focus on another chapter. Well worth keeping close at hand. Todd C. WilliamsPresident, eCameron, Inc. Amazon #1 Bestselling Author of Rescue the Problem Project and Filling Execution Gaps.
