Additionally, project managers tend not to have line management authority but still need to instruct, motivate, coach and cajole the team members. This ebook covers managing the team, the project sponsor and the stakeholders. This is one section of the book "Shortcuts to Success".

    Abstract: More than one-third of projects have a budget of seven figures or more, so handling the finances is an essential part of a project manager's repertoire. Keeping to budget is not always easy, and it is made harder by the fact that project managers themselves don't always get control over the money. As the 'average' project has its budget revised at least three times, the situation can be further complicated. This is one section of the book "Shortcuts to Success".

    Abstract: Project scope forms part of the 'golden triangle' of project management along with resources and time. If there is a change to any part of the triangle, another element has to change to keep the balance. This ebook helps project managers to understand how their project fits into the overall strategy of an organisation, how to avoid the traps of assumptions, manage risks and prevent scope creep. This is one section of the book "Shortcuts to Success".
