Book Sharing 1.5 – eXtreme Project Management

Friday, September 18th, 2009

eXtreme Project Management. Doug DeCarlo.

Traditional projects are comparable to a waterfall: Everything is planned in d e t a i l. Waterfall project management is working - provided that the conditions are of relatively low speed. When using the waterfall method you should avoid entering “terra incognita”, too.

Doug DeCarlo, the author of the book we’d like to introduce to you, is supporting and advising clients, who undertake projects in very demanding environments: high speed, high change, unpredictability and high stress. His work as facilitator, coach, trainer, keynote speaker and columnist has earned him international recognition.
