"It was a wonderful experience interacting with you and appreciate the way you have planned and executed the whole publication process within the agreed timelines.”
Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh PalAs projects become increasingly complex, the traditional methods are proving to be inadequate to meet challenges and embrace opportunities it offers. Businesses aim at getting their product faster to the market with superior quality to make most of the shorter lifecycle. To achieve this, we need is a fresh approach and transformation in the ways of managing projects:
From controlling chaos to unleashing potential From rigid frameworks to flexible, agile and nimble frameworks From deterministic estimates to progressive planning From desperation of meeting targets to the inspiration to excel From large project to easy-to-manage, quick-to-deliver mini projectsIt is evident that we can produce better results if we have a framework that enables focus, velocity and autonomy. The Spiral Staircase Project Management model offers this—an alternative way of managing projects, which aims to empower the knowledge workforce so as to enable greater levels of success in the organization. This book is an effort to create a simple, coherent, purpose-centric project management framework to get the best out of today’s projects.
John Robert
John Robert has over two decades of experience in project management, operations and supply chain management. Having worked with both infrastructure projects and new product development programs, he has comprehensive experience in brick-and-mortar projects as well as complex, cognitive projects.
He started his career as a project engineer and engaged in various roles which covered the entire spectrum of project stakeholders as consultant, client, end-user, project manager and a leader, which offered 360 insights on projects. He has had the opportunity to envision, institute and lead PMOs (Project Management Offices) for businesses with various levels of project management maturity. This helped him gain first-hand experience on on-ground realities, challenges and opportunities. While his education is in engineering and business, real-life experience drives him to seek opportunities to uncomplicate some of the unquestioned conventional practices; this book is a result of the same urge.
