for You, for Your Team!
“This is the most comprehensive compilation I've ever seen as it relates to project
management. It truly is GOLD! I'm a fast reader, yet I moved slowly through this
book and feel like I need to go back and read it again and again. So much GREAT
stuff here! Loved the excellent real world examples. You write directly to the heart
of the opportunities & challenges of project management and leadership. Many times
I found myself thinking, wow, I can use this same concept today in my job!”

There’s a secret to successfully managing projects – a secret that only 5% of top-producing
PMs know. It’s the reason they consistently complete projects on task, on time and
on target – no matter what the obstacles. Now their secret is available to you –
to help you learn the real-life, hands-on tools and techniques that aren’t taught
in basic training or certification. No, you didn’t somehow miss the course on how
to succeed in the daily demands of project management. That course simply wasn’t
taught anywhere – until now!
"Own the Forest, Delegate the Trees" gives you the project
leadership tools and techniques to reduce stress and increase results. It’s written
by a seasoned peer who spent decades in the trenches of major corporations studying
and experimenting with what works and what doesn’t work. Barbara Pratt understands
the needs and perspectives of both project managers and executives because she’s
served in both roles. Her experience and expertise are now available in a simple,
enjoyable read to help you move past day-to-day challenges into greater project
results.
Your project becomes more rewarding once you master the real-life executive leadership
skills, tools, techniques and strategies used by the top 5% of project managers.
What’s in it for you?
"Own the Forest, Delegate the Trees" will show you how to create:
- Income Security. Major corporations are starving for project managers
with a successful track record. Mediocre PMs are a dime a dozen; great ones are
rare. Once you establish yourself as a world-class PM, you’ll experience greater
satisfaction, job security and income.
- Fulfillment. As a project
manager you can expect to be challenged daily to resolve the issues and concerns
from both your company and your team. As you acquire the skills used by world-class
project leaders to manage those daily challenges, your job will become more fulfilling
and less stressful.
- Respect. Most executives think their PMs
don’t understand the company’s needs. Most PMs think executives don’t understand
their project needs. As a world-class PM, you’ll realize your job is not only completing
projects on task, on budget and on time, but also communicating effectively with
executives to earn their respect, build strong relationships and secure their support.
What will you learn?
- What executives expect and need from you.
- What "ownership", "leadership"
and "accountability" look and act like in your role as a project manager.
- How
to rapidly assess your team and close any skills or sufficiency gaps.
- How to
negotiate successfully for the right people and budget your project requires.
-
How to clearly assign and communicate roles and responsibilities to engage your
team members.

which you can use as a refresher or quick reference guide.
