About the Book

This book covers the big picture as well as the important how-to-do-it details in an easy-to-read format. Both project management tools and leadership facilitating behaviour performed under different organizational conditions and approaches are in focus. Thus, a number of issues relating to the project context are addressed using all the solid traditional project management tools as well as more complex leadership tools. All covered with real-life examples and numerous overview figures throughout the book.

The development of project methods over the years is presented as well as characteristics of basic project approaches: Waterfall projects and agile projects as well as program theory projects and large-scale co-innovation projects.

The book outlines the most common topics related to project management. This is:

  • A solide business case with the use of project portrait analysis and cost-benefit analysis;
  • Mission statement execution in object breakdown structure for evaluation purposes and work brakdown structure for planning purposes;
  • Planning in gantt charts and milestone plans with time and cost estimates;
  • Scope and constraint management of project baseline;
  • Extended stakeholder analysis and risk analysis and management of them;
  • Status execution to ensure the project´s finances and strategies for delays and budget overrun.
The book also outlines a number of leadership topics rarely found elsewhere. This is:
  • Formulation of a genuine mission statement committing the steering committee and actually functioning as a guideline for goals, tasks and evaluation;
  • Navigation in crazy time and conflict management when project owners and stakeholders "let go" and do not want to commit to the implementation of the project;
  • Avoidance of pool fight funding for the project's funding when key actors do not want to prioritize resources or manpower for the project;
  • Situational leadership and Directional leadership upwards in relation to the steering group, outwards in relation to stakeholders and downwards in relation to project participants;
  • Change management and advocacy in the host organization as a basis for anchoring the project.
  • Leadership of processes and development phases in project teams.
  • Sustainable leadership in projects.
