Book The Persuasive Project Manager  Communicating for Understanding

Download or read book The Persuasive Project Manager Communicating for Understanding written by Bill Brantley Pmp and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-03 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may have heard that "90% of a project manager's work is communication." But, have you heard why communication is so important and what is good project management communication? Answering those questions is why I spent the last ten years studying project management communication and what makes a successful project. Not only as a working project manager but as a communication researcher. I found that project management communication needs to be reinvented for today's more complex and agile projects. Communication is no longer just the transfer of information and giving directives to project teams. Modern communication theory is based upon creating shared understanding - "the coordinated management of meaning." And nowhere is it more important to manage and coordinate meaning - and understanding - than in projects. In my book, I will explain: -How to communicate for understanding instead of just giving information.-What Aristotle taught us about effective communication and why his 2,000-year old advice is still vital to persuasive communication.-How the "Coordinated Management of Meaning" can help you develop and lead high-performing project teams.-Why the project manager is the communication hub and how you can better manage the flow of project communication.-Why project managers need to master both emotional intelligence and cultural intelligence when communicating with their project teams and stakeholders. Be more effective in negotiations when you understand the hidden emotional and cultural subtexts.-What cognitive biases are and how they are barriers to understanding. This book will teach you how to recognize and overcome cognitive biases to better communicate your message.-How to effectively communicate online with a distributed workforce by virtually "present."-Why communicating for understanding is the foundation of being a coaching, situational leadership, and servant leadership project manager.This is not just a book on theory; I also give the working project manager practical tips and tools to help him or her improve their project management communication. These workplace-tested tips and tools are ready to use today as you manage your projects.I wrote this book because I couldn't find many books on project management communication. And the books I found were mainly focused on the outdated information transfer model. Because communication is important to project success, this book is dedicated to giving project managers the latest communication research and methods so he or she can create a culture of understanding in projects and increase the chances for project success.

  • ISBN : 9781983838934
  • Pages : 144 pages

Download or read book The Secret Product Manager Handbook written by Nils Davis and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Product management isn't about you and it isn't about your product. It's about solving problems for your customers, creating a solution, and taking it to market." When I started in product management, I had a lot of questions, like "What is product management?" It's a common question still, but most people don't have a good answer. After all these years, the same questions keep coming up. I see them on forums, I hear them when I talk to new and experienced product managers, and I still do not see them being answered well or usefully. So I wrote this book, with the answers to the questions I always had. You'll learn: The real reason people choose to buy a product - it's not about how "good" the product is! How to get the very best from your developers. The 5-word phrase that can accelerate sales and marketing. The best ways to talk to executives and customers about what you're building. Among other critical information, you'll find a powerful framework for thinking about product management - and even for talking to your Mom about what you do. The framework provides an infrastructure for most of The Secret Product Manager Handbook. I provide a concrete and explicit explanation of why product management is so important for businesses, including a calculation of the true business value of product management. And the book is full of specific techniques and practices for transforming your product management career. What People Are Saying "Nuggets of product management wisdom and ideas you'll want to hang on your monitor. The book is like having a conversation with a mentor." (Ken Hanson, Growth Product Manager) The summary of product management - identify market problems, guide the creation of solutions, and take the solutions to market - is powerful. As a former engineer, it's especially important to be reminded of the third point" (Frank Licea, Product Manager) "The intro is one of the clearest and smartest explanations of the value a product manager should bring to the table I've ever read." (Luca Candela, VP of Product Management)
