Elizabeth Harrin has a way of simplifying how to manage even the most complex projects. She's mastered the art of explaining precisely what a new or experienced project manager can do to be successful using an easy-to-follow people-centric approach that fuses processes and technology perfectly. No detail has been missed in this comprehensive book., Of all the challenges project managers face today, many of the students in my PM classes tell me that managing multiple projects is #1 on their list. Concurrent projects bring battles for resources, conflicting deadlines and competing priorities. Renowned PM expert and author Elizabeth Harrin's new book provides powerful guidance in this area, with many of her own tried-and-true tips and techniques. I especially recommend her personal portfolio workload tracking spreadsheet, described in detail in her book, as a great template to get started with for immediate productivity gains., In her must-read book Managing Multiple Projects , Elizabeth Harrin writes with the knowledge of someone with deep multi-faceted project management experience: individual, program and multiple projects. She provides readers with quick coaching tips and presents a robust five-concept framework for managing multiple projects, consisting of portfolio, plan, people, productivity and practices, a holistic way to control the workload., This book is a standout resource for anyone managing multiple projects and trying to do it with clarity and sanity intact. I especially appreciated the practical frameworks and the useful productivity checklists, but most importantly the emphasis on how to protect the wellbeing of both you and your team. This is the kind of book that earns a permanent spot on your desk, not your bookshelf and I know I will keep turning back to it for guidance., This book has been pivotal in helping me to organize my workload, reduce the guilt, speak objectively to stakeholders about priorities and really deliver lasting impact. Those skills got me my current role, and I've been weaving the concepts from the book into our business processes., This is one of the few books that acknowledge the reality of the modern workplace where managers are often juggling multiple projects at the same time. Elizabeth Harrin , an experienced project manager, sets out five concepts to help you keep your head above water and succeed in a world that is increasingly project driven., Managing Multiple Projects is an essential book for project managers to have on their shelves - toss away your others! It discusses the challenges that project managers face today and provides a number of best practices for managing those challenges., I didn't realize how much easier life could be until I opened the first edition of Managing Multiple Projects . And now, with the second edition, you get even more information and resources you need to manage multiple projects effectively. As a seasoned project manager who has juggled multiple projects over the years, I find myself frequently referring back to this invaluable resource. The updated edition builds even more on its predecessor, offering a structured approach that's not only easy to understand but also immediately actionable. One standout concept is 'Creating Your Personal Portfolio'-a strategy that has guided how I group and prioritize my projects. This method alone has been instrumental in aligning my work with my project goals. The lessons are clearly articulated, making it straightforward to integrate these strategies into your current projects. This book is a must-read for any project manager handling multiple projects-which, let's face it, is most of us. I wholeheartedly recommend this resource to all project managers seeking to enhance their efficiency and effectiveness.
