Proactive Project Management

One mindset is that the project management process itself should be lead. You promote proactive project management by planning and evaluating relevant management initiatives - and by adapting the level of effort and the tools for the project's degree of complexity. The entire book can be considered as a method with tools for such planning and evaluating the project management.

Another mindset is that the project management is not only a task for the project managers. The project owners, the participants and other parties must also be proactively involved in the management process. Such co-management means that the analyses and plans created will become more relevant- and have more impact on the project process. The general tool for such an approach, as presented in this book, is to facilitate the management activities.

The entire book is a supplement to the existing literature on project management. The new mindsets and methods promote the idea of being a more reflective project manager - and thereby gaining even more benefit from knowledge obtained from other books and from personal experiences.
