Synopsis

Managing projects involves being able to deal with uncertainty and
complexity in the workplace, but traditional management models have
severe limitations under these circumstances. We require new paradigms
to help us make sense of the world in which we live and work.
This book is the result of many workshops and courses for project
leaders working in a variety of settings in low- and middle-income
countries. It brings together some of the thoughts of leading management
writers in an accessible form, using fictitious case studies to
illustrate important points. The various activities described can be
used in workshops, by project leaders and managers. The book is of
interest to project leaders both in the governmental (public) and
voluntary sector as well as members of non-governmental organisations
from a wide range of disciplines, e.g. health, agriculture and community
development.
