The 6 Key Phases of Successful Project Management.
In today’s business world one of the most abused phrases is ‘project management’. It seems that all manner of ‘tasks’ are being labelled ‘projects’ which causes confusion and has the effect of diluting the importance of the real projects.
The biggest cause of projects going over time and over budget is the virtual failure of pre project planning. Organisations have a tendency to launch straight into action with little or no prior thought or planning and then wonder how and why things get totally de-railed.
In this book, Dr Jim Bradley clarifies the difference between a collection of tasks, and an actual project, and expands on:
- The 9 key reasons projects fail
- The 6 key components of successful project management (Leadership, accessibility, scope, expectations, resources and risk)
- Managing the 5 x P’s (People, politics, processes, products and priorities

Proper initiation is an up-front investment but it pays dividends. The LASERR process is step-by-step framework to help you work through the initiation phase, prompting you to consider issues and systems which might not normally enter into discussion before a project is started.
