'The book is a must read for all those involved in project and programme management, CEOs and Department Managers.' Kelven Spratling, Director Delivery Management, SAP (UK) Ltd

It is also an invaluable source of information for senior managers keen to recruit the people most likely to deliver benefits to the organisation via complex change initiatives.'
