Reader ReviewsI've been fortunate enough to have attended some of Rob's workshops and bought this book in 95. At the time I found it very insightful and have had great success applying it ever since. I recently re-read the book. Sadly much of what Rob saw as problems in 80's project management have remained in place in the 90's (massive projects, long timeframes with no staged delivery of change/benefits, throwing people and money - then having the plug pulled with nothing to show for $XX million spent). The technology may have changed, but what Rob is getting at in this book: Think about people, think about change, think about how to manage risk remain as relevant today as they did when first published in 93.
