Uncover common project management myths to improve project success How to Measure Anything in Project Management explains why popular methods for measurement in project management are flawed and describes how to conduct measurements that better inform decisions, reduce project risks, and improve the chance of project success. The authors argue that anything that matters to project management at all is measurable and that these measurements address many of the problems in project management. The authors leverage an exclusive survey on the state-of-the-art of measuring projects, new case studies of things that are seemingly hard to measure and a database, collected by Oxford Global Projects, of thousands of projects in software development, construction, energy, and many other fields, including some of the biggest projects in history. The book is accompanied by a set of useful spreadsheet-based power tools that support the more technical aspects of quantifying project risk, forecasting outcomes, and conducting seemingly difficult measurements. In this book, readers will learn: Why many of the methods they have been taught to use are little more than a type of ⠜analysis placebo⠝Why many popular methods lead to extreme overconfidence in estimatesHow some of the most important measurements a project could conduct are currently rarely used How to Measure Anything in Project Management earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of managers, executives, auditors, controllers, and consultants seeking to improve project performance through superior measurement methodology.

Change is a powerful force, but one that must be directed if it is to have a positive and calculated outcome. It can be shaped according to the needs of an organisation to grow or contract, respond to competition or threat, or simply to keep pace with the world around it.It is widely understood by leaders and managers that only effective project management has the potential to deliver the transformation they seek. However, many projects have failed to deliver the outcomes that their sponsors anticipated. Too many have produced apps, buildings, processes, products and services that remain on the shelf, unadopted, and a costly reminder that projects are vehicles that can just as easily deliver failure as success.The revised and expanded third edition of this much-admired guide explains the principles and techniques of change and project management. With its clear, structured approach it is an invaluable handbook for helping leaders and managers to be sufficiently informed, equipped and confident to use projects to deliver change, and to realise its benefits.
