If you work hard every day to “get it
done,” this book is for you. In this collection of essays from PM Network®, PMI’s
award-winning magazine, practitioners
from around the world share how they get
things done—and take their careers where

Talent Triangle™. Together, they represent

will give you a deeper understanding of the
profession.
“Within these pages, you will ;nd inspiring stories that vividly demonstrate the

challenges as marshaling resources, battling waste,
and managing stakeholders, business owners and
competing priorities.
“As a project manager, you might be managing
risk in complexity, an infrastructure project, new
product development or supervising completely
virtual teams. Whatever challenges you face—and I
know there are many—your colleagues around the
world have experienced similar issues and found
ways to manage them successfully.”
