Project Management for Operators

The project was supposed to take 8 weeks. By week 14 it shipped — late, over budget, to mixed reviews from an exhausted team and a frustrated client. The people on the project were smart and experienced. The work itself wasn't the problem. The management of the work was.

Inside this book:

What project management actually is (and why operators need it)
Scoping: defining what you're building (and what you're not)
Planning, milestones, and a timeline that holds under pressure
Roles, ownership, and team coordination — who does what by when
Budgeting and resource management — tracking the money and the hours
Stakeholder management without the drama
Risk and quality: what could go wrong and how to prevent it
Post-mortems that actually drive learning

For founders and operators who want predictable delivery without a PMP cert.
