Like it or not, good project management doesn't just happen - just like excellent athletes and their coaches don't just happen.
Good project management is a cumulus of factors that influence the outcome of a project. On the one hand, you need a team dedicated to working within deadlines and within the quality and functionality specifications of the client.
This book covers the following topics:
✓ Lean Thinking. It helps you have real-time experience with the customers, and you can build the product in line with their taste and expectations. You cannot always be in the same position. "No Growth" is terrible for business. Big enterprises, including startup businesses, are sure to have ups and downs at one point in time. There will be discouragement, break in production, and other hazards surround the business world.
✓ Agile. It is about a lot more than just hanging out in circles every day and playing little games when it comes to splitting larger tasks into smaller ones. In simple terms, a project is a series of activities meant to achieve a specific goal. The goal might be something pretty large, like a brand new, innovative software application. Or it might be something internal, like boosting the engagement among the employees.
✓ Scrum. It is possibly the very first thing that people think about when someone mentions Agile. It's no coincident, and this is the most frequently used framework that teams use. It provides the highest possible value for products, allows developers to quickly and decisively adapt to changes, and keeps them productive. It's the values, the team, the work put in, and the communication necessary for the project.
...And much more
If you have a goal and if your goal requires more than a couple of steps to be reached, you are most likely not facing a task, or even a series of tasks, but a project.
If you are thinking about how to manage your company's processes in an optimal way, how to give momentum and speed to the team's performance by obtaining a significant and lasting improvement, read on...

Some projects were always bound to fail. However, that is just a tiny minority. Most projects fail at least partly because of poor project management. If the project manager does not keep the team focused, doesn't keep control of progress, and doesn't keep checking that the project is meeting its objectives, projects easily drift. It is like letting a boat sail on without keeping a hand on the tiller-sooner or later, it will drift off course.

Leading Exponential Change (second edition, May 2019) unveils the secrets of Enterprise Agility.
The way companies manage change has undergone dramatic shifts, and organizations have tried to adapt to relentless market innovations by using artificial intelligence, Big Data, the Scrum Framework, increasingly connected people, and new mind-sets such as Agile or Lean. But all these approaches have only established disruptive change as a new, relentless reality.
In Leading Exponential Change, world-renowned consultant Erich R. B hler shares the secrets that differentiate truly remarkable companies from those that fail to adapt to today's constantly changing market conditions.
During his years on the front lines, the author recognized that no two companies were the same-and that what worked in one enterprise might not work in another. He studied a wide range of organizations to determine the specific behaviors and mind-sets needed to embrace change.
One thing became clear: human beings are not physiologically prepared for constant alterations in processes, roles, and ways of working. Realizing that a new approach was needed, B hler developed a set of revolutionary principles and techniques to create responsive people and organizations that challenged traditional thinking (and many Agile concepts).
Drawing on his experience as an international change consultant, the author takes you deep into why companies struggle to adapt even when they have the right people. He also analyzes the reasons some consultants face endless obstacles and resistance to change while others succeed.
This groundbreaking book offers new foundations to help company leaders, managers, Agile consultants, HR representatives, mentors, and scrum masters become skilled at helping others to influence change.
Here readers find five types of Agility-including Mental Agility and how to increase it B hler also explains two game-changing frameworks for increasing adaptability to change: the ELSA framework, ideal for environments where people welcome change, and DeLTA, which helps manage change in companies with hostile work environments.
Drawing from years of experience and employing an easy-to-follow approach, B hler also addresses the differences between Agile and Enterprise/Business Agility, explores what happens to the brain during change, explains methods for improving innovation, and teaches important concepts about organizational psychology and the neuroscience of change.
Between the first and second editions, B hler traveled around the world interviewing change consultants from different countries and cultures to verify which of his techniques had a positive impact and which ones needed to be improved.
Bolstered by this new data, the second edition of Leading Exponential Change is packed with new paradigms, practices, ready-to-use tools, and real-life stories from the author and other industry-revered consultants specializing in innovation, human resources, and coaching.
Paperback and ebook editions are available in Spanish (Lidera el cambio exponencial) and Portuguese (Lidere a Mudan a Exponencial), and this second edition is also available on audio for listening on the go.
