Strategic Project Organizing Reviews

Strategic Project Organizing is a forward-thinking text that progresses our understanding of project management and must be read by students, project owners and suppliers alike. It provides a systemic look at the project profession, offering a new level of maturity that is currently missing from the content of many project management texts which seem to have difficulties moving away from the in-house, manufacturing-led, thinking of the 1950s. This text should be standard reading for any project management Masters course, as well as any modern MBA course that understands the increasing importance of project management. * Nicholas Lambrou, University of Westminster *
Strategic Project Organizing offers a unique take and focus on projects which provides a welcome alternative to other textbooks. With research-based insights for different members of project teams, it offers advanced discussion around projects, their role in our current world and the people managing and leading these projects. * Christine Unterhitzenberger, University of Leeds *
