loginProject management is a combination of art and science, leadership and management. Various textbooks cover well the science part – the methodologies, tools, templates and techniques for planning and running projects. This represents the ‘hard skills’ side of project management. The textbook in front of you focuses, uniquely, on the art and leadership aspects – working with people, teams and organizations to achieve project success. This represents the ‘soft skills’ side of project management. Increasingly, leadership is considered to account for the difference between project success and failure in many instances. It includes being a good team leader, of course, but also a role model, an influencer with stakeholders, an entrepreneur, a cheerleader and project change agent.
