Good project decisions result in successful careers and profitable companies. Bad decisions can be costly and cause operational downtime, may hurt employee morale, and impact customers and suppliers. Making a good decision has become very difficult because of increasing operating complexity and less marketplace predictability. Because of this: employers rate critical thinking and decision making as a top essential skill. Business problems are complex – so why do we continue to use a standard one-dimensional approach to solve complex, risky, and unpredictable problems? This book takes a novel but practical, multi-dimensional approach to making value-creating project decisions–decisions which use less resources to produce maximum value, including: Link company strategy and goals to project concepts, How to assess which projects produce value, Risk, Make or buy project criteria, Service based project decisions. This book is intended for project managers, supply chain professionals, and operationally focused roles for individuals having responsibility for successfully delivering projects and want to take charge of their career.
A project team is critical to project success which in turn leads to success of an organization. Projects are routinely conceived and executed to operationalize strategic objectives of organizations.

How do we become good project managers? What does it take to become a true professional? This book gives depth to these crucial questions. It explains and illustrates the experiences and professional capacities we must acquire to become good at what we do. The entry point is project management, and this entry point is used to define what in general makes us become good professionals. The book shows that our professional capacity is so much more than our technical abilities and shows that becoming a true professional today is defined by three key factors: Our ability to accumulate relevant professional reference points and contexts. Our ability to juggle technical, people, power, and unforeseen professional agendas. Our ability to memorize our experiences in useful mental models. The world will end up having around 8 billion professionals, which means that more than 150,000 new professionals will enter the workforce every day for the next 75 years. This will dramatically change our professional context. This book is for everyone who wants to sharpen their professional skills and mental models to stay relevant.
