Description: Project management is at a crossroads: There is a pressing need to rethink the approaches used in initiating managing and governing projects programmes and change initiatives. The aim of this book is to progress the dialogue around project practice by shifting the focus from instrumental methods and prescriptive techniques towards a context - sensitive consideration of people strategy and change. Projects are initiated to deliver agreed outputs that can be translated into meaningful outcomes capable of satisfying the wishes and expectations for improvement and development. Yet people strategy and change which are largely ignored by the conventional bodies of knowledge are clearly central to the sustainable and enduring success of projects efforts and initiatives. The volume brings together some of the best writing by leading authorities on key topics including trust ethics people psychology requirements project performance audits uncertainty anti - fragility strategic initiatives governance change management and commercial management. The collection offers an invaluable new resource for informed managers looking to engage with the latest thinking and research.
