Project Management from Start to Finish

Project Management From Start to Finish describes a practical, scalable, and holistic approach to project management. I wrote this book to guide project managers as they learn to balance the mechanics of project management with the strategic and leadership skills needed to manage projects in today's complex environments. The activities and deliverables of each phase of the project management process are detailed from a practice-based, not theory-based, perspective. Guidance is provided for tailoring the process to ensure the project manager is always adding value to the project. Best practices, examples from real projects, and downloads to a set of integrated templates make this book a useful reference. This digital book delivers content through text, videos, audios, reflection questions, and self-check activities.

Project Management for Team Members

Project Management for Team Members contains the best practices and techniques project team members need to interact with the project manager and to work together as participants in the project management process. This book provides the project management skills needed to be a proactive team member: understanding the desired outcome of the project, prioritizing work appropriately, sharing progress information, understanding the nuances of the project plans, collaborating with other team members, and being a more effective problem-solver. I wrote this book for: the person new to working on projects who wants to understand their role as project team member, the project team member who wants to be more effective at fulfilling their responsibilities, and the project manager who wants to improve how they interact with their team members. The book can be read by an individual at their own pace, by each team member as part of a project kick-off phase, or in a cohort as part of a book club, general employee onboarding, or development program.
