Recenzje

"Given the pressing time constraints on large projects, stakeholder management tends to be overlooked and is often perceived to be a wasteful and/or unnecessary exercise ... Yet it has been proven over my career life that the best way to delay a project is in trying to fast-track it by ignoring essential delivery processes such as stakeholder management. This book is definitely a must-read for anyone with keen interest in good PM practices." - Kana Mutombo (PhD Maritime), Principal Engineer at Transnet National Ports Authority

"Whether you are a novice, a seasoned project manager, or even a student, I have no doubt that the content covered here will meet your needs for any project in dealing with the often volatile stakeholder management dynamics ... With my 15+ years of mentoring project managers in Central and Southern Africa, I highly recommend this publication." - Peter Banda (PhD Fellow/NUST, MSc, APM), CEO of Project Management Zimbabwe
