Book synopsis

The behaviour of people and their organisation are the primary drivers of a project's pace of progress. Methodology, tools and techniques are vital but they are subordinate to human endeavour, if only because their selection, deployment and application depend entirely on the abilities of the project's players. Performance ultimately rests on human knowledge, resolve, skill and collaboration. The Single-Minded Project offers an approach to project management that is entirely complementary to the existing methodologies; one that recognises that at its heart, the management of a project relies on the perceived choices and methods, behaviours and decision-making of its players and the freedom of action that is permitted to the project regime. It addresses the urgency of the project (the desire for swiftness), together with the kind and degree of diligence (the need for rigour in the choice and management of method) - where this is decided by the players to be necessary.The productivity of a project very much depends on the pace at which it is executed and delivers value. The Single-Minded Project fills in the gaps where the methodology doesn't provide any kind of response to the questions 'how fast should we deliver this project' and 'how much diligence is appropriate in our decision-making'.
