In the world of business, taking on the role of a project manager and overseeing the overall progress of a major operation can be a difficult thing to handle. As the renown speaker Brian Tracy once said, “Practice Golden-Rule 1 of Management in everything you do. Manage others the way you would like to be managed.” In author Michael Amato’s book Perspectives on Processes for Effective Project Management, the author lays out a comprehensive guide on reorganizing things to better operate as a project manager.
In the book, the author breaks down the need and differences between adaptive strategies versus process-driven strategies. Far too often project managers, primarily focusing on IT project management, will opt for the former while ignoring the latter altogether. Yet this can lead to project managers becoming overwhelmed or mishandling projects, so this book helps guide readers to better management styles. This is a well written, detailed and focused book that covers a wide range of topics on the subject of project management. From having processes shown as mathematical expressions to possible corrective actions and knowledge acquisition, this book is well focused and goal oriented, making for a clear-cut guide for the reader to follow.
This is definitely a book for anyone who is in the field of project management, business or enjoys the mathematical study of business practices as a whole. The book delved perfectly into a clear guide of specific processes for those who are interested and wanting to study and learn new management techniques for this line of work. A studious and well-written book, the author has created a detailed, phenomenal read that will keep readers invested in learning these new practices and have both seasoned and newcomer project manag
ers alike delving into these new practices to discover a fresh new perspective and possibly a winning strategy to their own project management styles.
