Scott Berkun worked on the Internet Explorer team at Microsoft from 1994-1999 and left the company in 2003 with the goal of writing enough books to fill a shelf. The Myths of Innovation is his second book: he wrote the best seller, The Art of Project Management (O'Reilly 2005). He makes a living writing, teaching and speaking. He teaches a graduate course in creative thinking at the University of Washington, runs the sacred places architecture tour at NYC's GEL conference, and writes about innovation, design and management at www.scottberkun.com.
In the updated edition of this critically acclaimed and bestselling book, Microsoft project veteran Scott Berkun offers a collection of essays on field-tested philosophies and strategies for defining, leading, and managing projects. Each essay distills complex concepts and challenges into practical nuggets of useful advice, and the new edition now adds more value for leaders and managers of projects everywhere. Based on his nine years of experience as a program manager for Internet Explorer, and lead program manager for Windows and MSN, Berkun explains to technical and non-technical readers alike what it takes to get through a large software or web development project. Making Things Happen doesn't cite specific methods, but focuses on philosophy and strategy. Unlike other project management books, Berkun offers personal essays in a comfortable style and easy tone that emulate the relationship of a wise project manager who gives good, entertaining and passionate advice to those who ask. Topics in this new edition include: How to make things happen Making good decisions Specifications and requirements Ideas and what to do with them How not to annoy people Leadership and trust The truth about making dates What to do when things go wrong Complete with a new forward from the author and a discussion guide for forming reading groups/teams, Making Things Happen offers in-depth exercises to help you apply lessons from the book to your job. It is inspiring, funny, honest, and compelling, and definitely the one book that you and your team need to have within arm's reach throughout the life of your project. Coming from the rare perspective of someone who fought difficult battles on Microsoft'sbiggest projects and taught project design and management for MSTE, Microsoft's internal best practices group, this is valuable advice indeed. It will serve you well with your current work, and on future projects to come.
我对这本书的第一版"The Art of Project Management"写过一篇书评,简单一句话就是对它的褒奖实在是过誉了. 原因主要有这几条,第一,最根本,它对项目管理的描述实在没有什么出彩的地方,讲的都是很普通的,大家都明白的道理; 第二, 选材很有问题,对于风险管理 (Risk Management),执...
評分我买了一本影印版的,很不错的书,写的也生动幽默,但是,感觉实践起来其实有很多前提的,这种项目管理适合在非常正规的企业,大家都是很Professional地做事才行,不像在我们的国企,私企,内耗和其他一些东西对项目的影响太大。。。。个人感觉。。。。
評分我意外地发现我很久以前写的一篇书评居然还有一定的浏览量,就把它贴到这里,嘿嘿。 http://qiulang.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!27219B09874C13DE!527.entry “说来很惭愧,这本书才392页,而我居然读了两年!06年O’Reilly 刚出版这本书影印版的时候,我注意到了,就马上买了...
評分不只是介绍理论、流程,更主要介绍的是如何实践,这是一本告诉你项目管理该做什么,为什么做,以及怎么做的好书!
評分由于新工作上的需要,我看了这本书。 从本质上来说想要大概了解下整个项目管理的思想和方法。 看完后很难定义本书的标签:管理,艺术,心理,哲学,决策。 可以说是包罗许多要素的一本工具书。 作者是微软的PM,带过IE,MSN等项目,可谓经验丰富。 从项目初期一直写到项目终盘,...
