Case in Point

Learning Project Management from a Project Management book is like learning cooking by reading about plants. Project Management, just like cooking, is about celebrating people, environment, organization, leadership, innovation, and the human experience.

Every cook brings his story to life in his cooking and shares it with his audience. Same with the Project Manager, everything in his Project Management Style is a story to be told and a lesson to be learned. Without this practical realistic look at Project Management, it becomes dull, bland, and too theoretical. This is why I always focused on the personal, human aspect of Project Management in my practice in the domain and working with my clients. 

It has been a great success for me and I wanted to share what I have tried and worked with my colleagues. I started sharing this experience in my training courses for thousands of attendees spanning four continents. I have also done the same for organizations for whom I have consulted. Throughout my career I also shared these experiences in hundreds of articles that I have written over the years.

At this stage, I felt it is time to put a selected group of my articles in a book that focuses on the human aspect of Project Management.
