The Project Manifesto, Amazon Best-Selling Book Free For One More Day

Rob Newbold and Bill Lynch bring you The Project Manifesto, is a fictional story with real life lessons that forces the reader to reconsider the traditional approach to developing new products.  The Project Manifesto about the adoption of the critical chain project management methodology--an approach that has been very successful and has been around for nearly 20 years, but has not been widely adopted. We tend to think about “change” in terms of what we do. We get different results when we choose to think and therefore act in different ways. So change programs--whether they be self-improvement or business-improvement--tend to focus on the ’what to change’. Whether it be new activities, new processes, or new tools, the prescription for change typically culminates in a list of things to start or stop doing. It is rare that a change program delves deeply into the process of how to cause the change, and for understandable reasons.

The Project Manifesto has reached #1 on Amazon’s best seller list with an average 4.9 star review rating.  Here’s what some of the reviewers have said:
 
An excellent book written in the form of a novel, so it is an easy read. We learn alongside a project manager who inherits a troubled project. While tackling the challenges he is presented, he uncovers fundamental principles that equip both his work team, and his family, to go beyond normal, and toward exceptional.

I found this book to be refreshing and insightful. It is broad enough in scope and deep enough in content, that it provides guidance that can be immediately applied in both business settings, and in the rest of life. I recommend this book to people looking for an engaging novel; project managers, project sponsors, and team members who want to make a quantum leap forward in their performance; and everyone who has a life outside of work.” – Papa G.
 
“Very good book about how to manage your life! Loved that it was a fictional novel that can be applied to everyones life. Teaches a great lesson! Thanks Rob and Bill.”
