These holistic rules cover broad aspects from management, negotiation, psychology and business. It's full of real life examples of various international projects which were both successful or failed. The book shows that beyond certifications, methodologies, and manuals, project management professionals need to learn how to face crisis situations, changing scopes and toxic work environments and then successfully deliver a project. What You Will Learn Holistic view on project lifecycle from sales to delivery What is really important for customers in IT projects Key aspects of proactive attitudes needed for successful project delivery.
