Recenzje

"The art and science of leadership is a highly valued skill. Most people learn leadership through experience. This comprehensive book by Jonasson and Ingason provides an organized way to learn and apply competent management skills. Not only is there practical content on leadership styles and transparency but its framework is grounded in psychology. Project leadership is a must-read book for not only students but both project leaders and those who aspire to be one. I strongly recommend this cutting-edge book." - Dr Ann Wolbert Burgess, professor at Boston College, Project leader of the FBI research project depicted in Mindhunters/Netflix (there portrayed as Dr Wendy Carr).

"This concise book offers a creative, critical and a very practical insights on future leadership. It applies to project leadership but does also expand far beyond that. It skillfully challenges managers and leaders to truly examine themselves for better results and more abundant living. Its content, if taken seriously, can do wonders for you and your teams." - Hilmar Veigar Petursson CEO, CCP Games and creator of Eve online.
