Scott Berkun worked on the Internet Explorer team at Microsoft from 1994-1999 and left the company in 2003 with the goal of writing enough books to fill a shelf. The Myths of Innovation is his second book: he wrote the best seller, The Art of Project Management (O'Reilly 2005). He makes a living writing, teaching and speaking. He teaches a graduate course in creative thinking at the University of Washington, runs the sacred places architecture tour at NYC's GEL conference, and writes about innovation, design and management at www.scottberkun.com.
In the updated edition of this critically acclaimed and bestselling book, Microsoft project veteran Scott Berkun offers a collection of essays on field-tested philosophies and strategies for defining, leading, and managing projects. Each essay distills complex concepts and challenges into practical nuggets of useful advice, and the new edition now adds more value for leaders and managers of projects everywhere. Based on his nine years of experience as a program manager for Internet Explorer, and lead program manager for Windows and MSN, Berkun explains to technical and non-technical readers alike what it takes to get through a large software or web development project. Making Things Happen doesn't cite specific methods, but focuses on philosophy and strategy. Unlike other project management books, Berkun offers personal essays in a comfortable style and easy tone that emulate the relationship of a wise project manager who gives good, entertaining and passionate advice to those who ask. Topics in this new edition include: How to make things happen Making good decisions Specifications and requirements Ideas and what to do with them How not to annoy people Leadership and trust The truth about making dates What to do when things go wrong Complete with a new forward from the author and a discussion guide for forming reading groups/teams, Making Things Happen offers in-depth exercises to help you apply lessons from the book to your job. It is inspiring, funny, honest, and compelling, and definitely the one book that you and your team need to have within arm's reach throughout the life of your project. Coming from the rare perspective of someone who fought difficult battles on Microsoft'sbiggest projects and taught project design and management for MSTE, Microsoft's internal best practices group, this is valuable advice indeed. It will serve you well with your current work, and on future projects to come.
my first time to buy a book through the website of dangdang ,but only to find that this book is out of store,it's really ridiculous..
评分我买了一本影印版的,很不错的书,写的也生动幽默,但是,感觉实践起来其实有很多前提的,这种项目管理适合在非常正规的企业,大家都是很Professional地做事才行,不像在我们的国企,私企,内耗和其他一些东西对项目的影响太大。。。。个人感觉。。。。

评分 评分讨论了很多一般项目管理或者软件开发方法论书籍很少涉及的人的问题。 准备再买3本,一本留给自己,两本送给同事
只根据题目挑选了有关章节看,实在是没什么可以借鉴和学习的。可能我还是nerd思维,认为精化process只有在公司变得愚蠢而官僚之后才需要。但考虑到我本人的一叶蔽目,姑且给两星而不是一星。
