Introduction to the Book
Scrappy Project Management® - The 12 Predictable Pitfalls Every Project Faces is worthy of being on every project managers bookshelf. It always pays dividends to get the perspective of other seasoned project managers because there is more than one right way to be successful at project management. The author's perspective is refreshing and insightful.
The biggest compliment I have about this book is that it is not an academic book. It is a book intended for practitioners of the project management craft written by a practitioner. I like books that provide the kind of advice a mentor would give you over a cup of coffee and Scrappy Project Management® fits that mode.
