Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references and index (p. 161-165) and index Don't do IT -- Stepping up to the plate -- Defining a shared project vision -- Value-based delivery -- Generating solution options -- The business case as a management tool -- Project delivery -- Conclusion : a team of leaders -- Appendix A: Solution workshops -- Appendix B: Glossary -- Appendix C: Net present value (NPV) primer The track record of IT projects is poor. Less than a third of IT projects delivered what they said they would, on schedule and on budget. The major cause of IT project failure is not poor IT leadership or difficult technology but poor business leadership. One of the reasons for this is that, unlike their IT peers, business managers often get little training or education in project delivery, let alone the special case represented by an IT project. This book addresses the gap by providing tools and ideas that are applicable to all sizes of IT projects, from those in large multinational corporations, down to small growing businesses. It sets out the key project touch points where business leadership can have a major impact on project success. The book combines psychological research and project best practice to create a practical toolbox that weaves together three key strands of thought: the concept of value should be at the forefront of project design and deliver; business managers need to take active leadership of IT projects to secure value; and project teams need tools to slow down their thinking and ensure that actions and decisions are well thought through |
