Have you ever worked on a project that ran into serious snags? Or a project that was canceled after significant time and expense? Or one that delivered an acceptable result, yet the people involved would have rather jumped off a cliff than work together again?

How many of these situations were caused, at least in part, by people problems? In Powerful Project Leadership you'll find innovative approaches to working with people that enable you (and everyone) to do their best project work. This book will help you acquire a new toolkit for project success. You'll find yourself drawing from it often!

• Real-life examples that show the reader how to develop and exercise powerful leadership skills

Use Powerful Project Leadership as a resource to :

• Learn how to pay attention to early signs that something is going wrong on your project
• Develop practical approaches to stubborn, intractable, and utterly predictable problems on projects
• Improve the vital flow of information by addressing human problems and misunderstandings
• Encourage change at a deep level - within the individual, on the project, and within the organization
