"Real Project Management is not 'shelf-ware', it is 'now-ware' -- a
book which should be read NOW! Peter Taylor has captured perfectly
the current mood and reality of the project and programme
profession, and translated it into a fast-moving read which every
project manager, from 'senior' to generation Y, should read. If you
work in the project field or need to work with someone who is, read
this book." * Stephen Carver, Project & Programme Management,
Cranfield University School of Management *
"This book is great material that can be read several times serving
as an important self-assessment for your professional development."
* Alex Marques, PM World Journal *
"The author has managed to find a fresh approach to what is
otherwise a fairly well trodden pathway, providing quite an
interesting look at the problems and challenges that project
management can face within the enterprise." * Darren Ingram, Darren

"A great, enjoyable and informative read. A very good read with
lots of input from other experts in the PM world as well as case
studies and interesting data. My recommendation: Buy this book! You
won't be sorry. And the readers should not be limited just to
project managers. The information contained within will be helpful
to PMs and PMO directors, of course. But it will also be of great
value to resource managers, CIOs, CEOs and any project stakeholders
or organizational resource that can learn from good project
management material and principles. If you ask me, this includes
just about everyone in the business world today." * Brad Egeland,
Workamajig *
"Taylor surveys both new and experienced project managers to
identify their top challenges and offer his characteristic brand of
efficient and effective solutions. Between his astute observations
of the past, present, and future of project management, and his
genius tips for combating common management challenges, Taylor's
new book gets our enthusiastic recommendation." * Emily Bonnie,
