The Project Manager As Change Agent: Leadership, Influence and Negotiation

The "Project Management as Change Agent" examines the often overlooked role of the project manager. It is not enough to rely on the relationship between manager and project team. The authors' collective experience widens our view beyond this stage to that of relationships with indirect influences such as owners, sponsors, resource providers and consumers. In fact, anyone whose lives are affected by the project's work and outcome. This radical re-evaluation is a comprehensive preparation and guide for any project manager wanting to maximize strategic and successful change as an integral part of their project objective.
