A balance between management and leadership, acknowledge the unknown, do proper risk management, empower your team and innovation starts with self-reflection. What's driving you? What may be holding you back? Examine your big 'why'. Madsen uses the six human needs (certainty, variety, significance, connection, growth and contribution) which prove to be more complete than sticking to Maslow's pyramid or Daniel Pink's threefold motivators (autonomy, mastery, purpose). Next there's the set of 7 keys: be authentic, lead with vision, improve and innovate, empower your team, get close to your stakeholders, establish a solid foundation and work with intent. Communication skills, risk management, open mindedness, brainstorming, team building, collaboration and networking all are covered.

I highly recommend this book to every fellow project manager.… (más)
