Summary: A Useful Tool
Review: Management can be a challenging field in and of itself; one does not have to be managing a project to appreciate the useful information found in this book. As a manager in a corporate enviornment, I found this book to have a wealth of information that should serve anyone in a suporvisory position well in their day to day activities. Based on the techniques found in this book, I'm confident that I could take on any assigments/projects that may come my way. Very well done.

Summary: Author Practices What he Preaches
Review: This book is an excellent source for new managers who need to understand the dynamic situation that is called "project management". Most important are the collection of techniques to manage yourself, stress and work with others, which this book emphasizes--"what they don't teach you in project management school". I found the book to lend an entirely new perspective to the behavioral aspects of project management. After taking a course taught by the author, I am even more impressed he was able to condense a lot of useful material in a usable text. A text you will have on your shelf for a while!

Summary: Excellent book for beginners who know little about Proj Mgt
Review: This book is well written, and a good book for those people who are beginners in project management. Steve writes at an easy to read level and makes it interesting. Many books are written at to high a level for people to really grasp concepts. This book is easy and fun to read with many good concepts that work not only at the office, but also in other areas of your life, such as home, church, etc. Good solid information on how to manage time, de-stress yourself, and other valuable information. This is an excellent book.
