Envisioning PMO & Project Management Through A Juggler's Eye: Part-1


Book Description

The Nonpareil of the Project Managers is in the way they express through their communication, planning, coordination, persuasiveness, and attitude. The Project managers are the "Jugglers" because "Jugglers" can adroitly manage multiple activities simultaneously. So, as the Project Managers are, they are the best strategist in this entire universe; apart from this, the planning and coordination of a Project Manager is always class apart. The problem with Project Managers and the Project Management Office role is that they are always treated as overhead and always underrated. To summarize, they are the underdog, who can hold the flag until the fort's last brick, but they have never been treated similarly. I have always been trying to change the leaders' mindset and thoughts through my articles so far. This book will run through all those articles and help you feel my thoughts, experience, knowledge, and perspective on Project Management and PMO. If thoughts are nurtured with the right attitude and expressed concisely, it will have immense power to change the process and the entire world. By following this principle, I have been expressing my thoughts and ideas similarly, and I could only see the difference in people's talk. Still, I am sure one-day things change on the ground of reality, whereas things will change at the forefront, not only in people's conversation. I hope this book will nurture your thoughts and get you the exact feel of my thoughts. Lastly, I hope this book will help the aspiring PM's and PMO's in the right way to groom them and present them in a way where you will not become a Project manager, but you can also become a front runner for a future great leader; you can become an influencer.
