Thought Leadership

We literally wrote the books!
Tim has co-authored books, chapters, forewords and articles because he is deeply interested in teams, innovation, results-making, leadership, product development, and project management, there is no better place to look for data than governmental organizations. The US Federal government is a leader in the development of key concepts within project management – critical path, earned value, and portfolio management to name a few. Governments can also be hives of deep dysfunction, bureaucracy, and unaccountability.

These hard-to-change organizations have resulted in some interesting insights that we carry forward to other teams, projects, and situations.

Author of Foreword, Proofreader, and Cheerleader

Many project managers do not have the authority to direct the activities of people on their teams – they can only influence them. The most influential people succeed by focusing less on themselves and their message and more on others. They pay attention; they are brave; they are vulnerable; they are curious, and they look for and acknowledge the things that are important about, and to, the other person. And they model the behavior that they want to see. This book tells you how.

The author provides tools and frameworks for building a culture of appreciation, understanding character strengths, mapping leadership qualities, understanding learning styles, identifying team roles, and executing plans. She also explores the factors that contribute to conflict and tensions as well as strategies for getting through difficult times. We see these tools and techniques in action through “Maggie”, a project manager who is struggling to motivate her team. Each chapter concludes with reflective questions to make the ideas stick and with key strategies for success.

Editorial Committee and Secretariat

Developed over three years, and leveraging the expertise of more than 150 global experts, this revised standard describes three domains of expertise extant in business today:

  • Project management
  • Program management
  • Portfolio management

Each domain contains the 29 competence elements organized in three competence areas:

  • People; defining the personal and interpersonal competences required to succeed in projects, programs and portfolios (10 People competences)
  • Practices; defining the technical aspects of managing projects, programs and portfolios (14 Practice competences; number 14 Select and balance is not applicable for projects)
  • Perspective; defining the contextual competences that must be navigated within and across the broader environment (5 Perspective competences).

The book (416 pages) describes all competences for project, program and portfolio managers separately. It contains cross-references to the ISO21500 and ISO21504 and to the old ICB3. For each competence you will get the definition, purpose, description, knowledge, skills and related competence elements and a related set of key competence indicators (description and measures).
