Project Leadership: Creating Value with an Adaptive Project Organization

By Barry L. Cross and M. Kathryn Brohman

Today's organizations need to introduce new products and enhance existing services faster in order to remain competitive. The common cause of project failure is that leadership fails to appreciate the extent of uncertainty and complexity in a project and therefore doesn't adapt their management structure accordingly. This book highlights how successful projects rely not just on the project team, but on the culture of executive leadership. Concepts are presented in an anecdotal manner that will suit today's leaders. The book offers straight-forward takeaways and solutions to provide executives with the tools to implement an effective project environment.
