A Complete Guide to Identifying, Preventing, and Recovering from Project Failure
by Todd C. Williams
ISBN: 9780814416822
(AMACOM Books, 2011)
Todd's first book delivers twenty-five years of project rescue experience. Unlike other books on the subject, Rescue the Problem Project focuses on the process to rescue the project. This is the critical few weeks that transform a failing project to a successful project. Other processes blindly layer processes on top of a project without finding the cause of the failure. Rescue the Problem Project focuses on root cause analysis to determine the source of problems and solve them once and for all.
Rescue the Problem Project is a practical guide to managing and running projects. It is the only book that focuses on people rather than process and highlights where many companies go wrong--leading with technology as a solution. This approach makes it invaluable as an instructor's tool to relay the experiential knowledge in managing people on projects. As the title implies, it extensively uses troubled projects to provide the practical experience required to improve a manager's chance of success. The lessons-learned examples apply far beyond the project and into practical leadership skills. Definition, auditing, and negotiation are skills that everyone needs. Rescue the Problem Project discusses these concepts in the context of project management and provides the experiential information for students to learn and retain the information.
