Rainbows & Ratholes: Best practices for managing successful projects

A brilliant piece of work and an invaluable read for anyone who is serious about project & program success! An absolute must read for project sponsors in general. -- Romeo Mitchell, PMP, Senior Program Manager, HP Canada

Definitely the best down-to-earth guidance I have come across in one place in more than 30 years of reading about, writing about, and doing project management. Best read for all types of project managers. -- Journal of Product Innovation & Management 2008: Gerald Mulenburg, NASA (retired).

Glad to see a book written by a passionate professional. It synthesizes huge knowledge and experience of Project Management and the best of ideas in taking project management to results. -- Dept. of Mgt. Studies, IIT New Delhi, India - Dr. K. Momaya, Associate Professor

Provides a spark of insight and energy to nudge a Project Manager over an obstacle or constraint that is hindering the project flow and the variety of topics covered makes the book timely and invaluable. -- Earl W. Crisp, D. P. A., adjunct instructor, Mgt. Dept., Univ. of Texas at Arlington and College of Business, Dallas Baptist University

Very impressed! You have succeeded in explaining and discussing what is common for all projects no matter what business you are in. I have learned a lot from your book. -- Olav Bjørnson, Project Manager, Aker Kværner Systems a.s, Norway

5Finally---a book that explains what Project Managers do!  Sep 24, 2006
This book is absolutely a must-read for any Project Manager! More importantly, this book can easily apply to so many other fields. It is simply written, easy to follow, and the analogies are great! The whole concept of Project Management can be projected onto any other sector for people other than IT engineers (Like Me!!!). I love that anyone (ex orchestra conductor/physician/attorney/chef/pilot etc) can pick up this book and apply it to their profession. I think this novella is a great read for the small business owner for ideas and inspiration! I finally understand what Project Management entails!
As an aside, I also like the catchy front cover...
