Publisher's Summary
No project management training? No problem!
In today’s workplace, employees are routinely expected to coordinate and manage projects. Yet, chances are, you aren’t formally trained in managing projects - you’re an unofficial project manager.
FranklinCovey experts Kory Kogon, Suzette Blakemore, and James Wood understand the importance of leadership in project completion and explain that people are crucial in the formula for success.
Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager offers practical, real-world insights for effective project management and guides you through the essentials of the people and project management process:
- Initiate
- Plan
- Execute
- Monitor/Control
- Close
Unofficial project managers in any arena will benefit from the accessible, engaging real-life anecdotes, memorable - "project management proverbs”, and quick reviews at the end of each chapter.
If you’re struggling to keep your projects organized, this audiobook is for you. If you manage projects without the benefit of a team, this audiobook is also for you. Change the way you think about project management - "project manager" may not be your official title or necessarily your dream job, but with the right strategies, you can excel.
This audiobook is expertly narrated by Teri Schnaubelt, an audible listener favorite. It includes a supplementary PDF, which contains all graphics and worksheets referenced in the audiobook.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Short and sweet but just the ticket!
I’ve been searching for a book like this for a long time. Too much of project management is focussed to the professional PM. The opening here acknowledged today’s realities for knowledge workers, and, being a Franklin Covey production, led the dialogue from the people leadership perspective, with the process secondary. This was magic. The frequent connections back to PMBOK reinforced that the PM methodology expounded is the ‘official’ methodology, so listeners are getting what they paid for. One of the best business books I’ve encountered in a long time.

hard to listen too
there are too many charts being read out line by line and it's very dry. I'm sure there's some good info in there but getting it out is a chore.
