Hello Reader, The thing that was on my mind when I sat down to write Managing Multiple Projects was that I only wanted to write a book that I would want to read. In other words, I needed it to be practical, implementable, easy to read, and grounded in the real-life experiences of me and hundreds of other project managers. I am done with reading management books that don’t reflect what my life is like. You know, the books that assume you’ve got just the one project to manage – as if you never...
