商品描述

In the traditional view of project management, if a project manager completed a project and had adhered to the triple constraints of time, cost, and performance, the project was considered a success. Today, in the eyes of the customer and the parent or sponsoring company, if a completed project did not deliver its anticipated value, it would be seen as a failure.

Today's changing economic climate, marked by an increasingly competitive global environment, is driving project managers to become more business oriented. Projects must now be viewed from a strategic perspective within the context of a business or enterprise that needs to provide value to both the customer and the organization itself. As a result, project managers are now required to possess the skills to complete a project within certain specifications, and also know how to create and deliver value.

Responding to the needs of today's project managers, Value-Driven Project Management begins by changing the paradigm of project management. Rather than judge the success of a project from the perspectives of time, budget, and quality, the authors demonstrate why success is only achieved when planned business values are met, including:

  • Internal value

  • Financial value

  • Future value

  • Customer-related value

The authors also offer best practices that allow you and your organization to create additional value in efficiency, customer satisfaction, and enhanced products and services. Finally, the book helps you incorporate value into clearly defined business objectives and "sell" the value-driven process to executives.

Throughout the book, helpful illustrations clarify complex concepts and processes.

Assigning valuable resources to projects that don't provide some tangible form of value to the organization and to the client is poor management and poor decision-making. On the other hand, selecting and implementing projects that will deliver value and an acceptable return on investment is effective management and decision-making, but is very challenging, especially when a project may not provide its target value for years to come. With Value-Driven Project Management in hand, you'll discover the tools you need to ensure that projects deliver true value upon their completion.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在傳統的專案管理觀點中,如果專案經理完成了一個專案並且遵守了時間、成本和績效的三重限制,該專案就被認為是成功的。然而,在今天的客戶和母公司或贊助公司眼中,如果一個完成的專案未能提供預期的價值,則會被視為失敗。

如今,不斷競爭的全球經濟環境正在推動專案經理變得更加商業導向。專案現在必須從戰略角度來看待,並且要在需要為客戶和組織本身提供價值的企業背景下進行評估。因此,專案經理現在需要具備在特定規格內完成專案的技能,並且知道如何創造和提供價值。

為了滿足當今專案經理的需求,《價值導向專案管理》從改變專案管理範式開始。作者們不再從時間、預算和品質的角度來評判專案的成功,而是展示了只有在實現計劃的商業價值時才能達到成功的原因,包括:

- 內部價值
- 財務價值
- 未來價值
- 與客戶相關的價值

作者還提供了最佳實踐,讓您和您的組織能夠在效率、客戶滿意度和產品服務的增值方面創造額外的價值。最後,本書還幫助您將價值納入明確定義的業務目標中,並向高層推銷價值導向的流程。

在整本書中,有用的插圖澄清了複雜的概念和流程。

將有價值的資源分配給無法為組織和客戶提供某種有形價值的專案是糟糕的管理和決策。另一方面,選擇和實施能夠提供價值和可接受投資回報的專案是有效的管理和決策,但這非常具有挑戰性,尤其是當一個專案可能需要多年才能提供目標價值。有了《價值導向專案管理》,您將找到確保專案在完成後真正提供價值的工具。
