This Book In this book, you will find stories drawn from the author's experience in successfully managing 85 challenging and widely varied projects. The stories all relate to situations that required thoughtful application of the standard practices described in the several different project management handbooks on his bookshelf. These stories were published over the past three years in an exceptional on-line blog published by Forward Momentum, LLC. Each month, that blog presents a collection of new stories by several of their more than thirty contributors on a variety of topics related to their successful projects and process improvement activities. The Forward Momentum archive contains more than 365 stories from the past three years, enough to provide bed-time reading for a whole year.
