The ideas in this book inspired our team to create LiquidPlanner. Our dedication to the principles of ranged estimation and great software tools inspired Steve McConnell to join the LiquidPlanner Advisory Board. This book is required readying for all software development leaders. 

A good foundation in the basics of managing software projects. Fundamentals are always important to understand. 

Don't miss this classic collection of wisdom told in the very entertaining form of a business novel. Learn why you should put the slow moving camper at the head of the line when you hike into the woods. 

This is a book you might wish you found 10 years earlier. It will change your thinking about multi-tasking, using buffers, and where to focus your attention as a manager.  It focuses on better throughput and shows us that old PM habits are doing more harm than good. The business novel format is very digestible if not down right entertaining (how else would you get someone to think about the Theory of Constraints, oops forget I said that, just read the book).

It's not what you think :)

Practice makes perfect, or at least 10,000 hours worth of practice. Full of lessons and entertaining ideas for the project manager in all of us.
