Delivery Effectiveness

According to the Standish Group, a third of conceptualized projects are cancelled before they start and more than 50 percent of projects will exceed their budgets by more than 100 percent.


Hordes of statistics and reams of data are available that reflect the poor performance of organizations in meeting the goals of their initiatives. There are better ways to deliver.


Carl M. Manello, a veteran business executive and consultant, provides a blueprint to bolster project management in this book. Learn how to:


• keep projects on track, from start to finish;

• make an impactful difference with minor changes in thinking;

• focus like a laser on what is needed most;

• deliver more value from projects.


Many organizations rely on armies of certified project managers who can quote textbooks, but they fail to put their knowledge into action. That’s why this book is so important as it presents an opportunity to use well known—but not well used—principles, practices, and methods to manage projects.


To get better results than the project management profession has been able to produce since the middle of the last century, we must try something different. Delivery Effectiveness provides a simple approach to get better results.
