Summary

Is your desire to become a winning project leader? Do you want to achieve more than an ordinary project manager?

Seventy-five percent of organizations rank leadership skills as most important for the successful projects (The Project Management Institute).

You can make well over $100,000 with experience and leadership (ProjectManager.com).

Leading projects is a complex task, and project managers fight on several fronts. Many feel like they’re rolling a heavy boulder up a steep hill when dealing with difficult stakeholders and team members.

But what are the secrets of those who always win during meetings? Why servant leaders have so many followers? Which leadership skills are essential for a project manager?

A project manager can achieve a lot - but a project leader with their team shoot goals and create real values.

This audiobook will reveal:

  • Nine leadership areas of a successful CEO and project manager
  • How to turn conflicts to your advantage
  • Six bulletproof tips to solve complex problems
  • Steps to build your performing team
  • 11 ways to break barriers
  • Servant leadership for a successful project
  • Effective delegation of tasks
  • How to influence and persuade your stakeholders
  • Bonus: A negotiation checklist that includes advanced techniques

I have described all the soft skills you will need. You can choose negotiation, active listening, problem solving, or any other skill, follow the instructions and practice it, and your success is inevitable. Once you develop your talent for this, you’ll discover whole new worlds opening up for your dream career.

Open the door, and nobody will close it!

I believe that your deep desire is to become a project leader. If you agree with me then you should listen to this audiobook!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A guide to successful projects of any size

I found thebook very practical for non-project managers. I lead many initiatives and process improvements that can be managed as little projects. I cooperate with people, and there, the leadership skills come into play. Peter offers all leadership, interpersonal and communication skills that are essential for project management. I particularly liked advanced problem-solving skills. I struggled with certain conflict situations, but the advice to classify them per category helped me view them differently and apply an effective method. The author provides basic and advanced techniques accompanied by a practical negotiation checklist that helps me prepare for difficult meetings. The narration is very engaging.

Excellent.

I am starting a leadership role this Saturday with a charity and needed some help / tips. This is full of useful information which I will be putting into action. Confidence booster if you're unsure about starting in project leadership or any leadership role. Thank you!

Negotiate and win

There are many books on negotiation, but this one summarizes basic and advanced steps for a project leader. I have downloaded the bonus checklist that will help me win many battles, even when facing a strong negotiator.
