A Breakthrough Framework for Adaptive Project Management from Project Management Guru Robert K. Wysocki
Traditional project management models simply are not appropriate for an increasing number of critical projects, for which complete requirements and objectives cannot be specified upfront, and relentless change cannot be avoided. What's needed is an entirely new framework for project management: one that combines Agile methods with the profession's most enduring best practices. In this book, Robert K. Wysocki provides that framework-the Adaptive Project Framework (APF)-and shows how to apply it in any domain.
Wysocki, one of the world's leading project management consultants, has spent decades helping large organizations succeed with complex projects. Drawing on everything he's learned, he explains why a fundamentally new framework is needed, and introduces all five phases of that framework. He covers artifacts, processes, and deliverables, and shows how to utilize each phase most effectively in your environment. Through four detailed case studies, you'll discover how APF can help you adapt to unexpected events, encouraging creative responses based on open partnerships between clients and project teams.

This book is written for every project participant-project and program managers, software and product developers, process designers, and business analysts-who needs to deliver results in a world that won't stand still.
