Easy to read, easy to implement, and a strong bridge to more advanced learning Invaluable as both a classroom text and an on-the-job resource, The One-Page Project Manager for Execution is a key guide for executives, business leaders, industrial and manufacturing engineers, project management professionals, academics, and students. Drive Strategy With Simplicity-On A Single Sheet Of Paper! The One-Page Project Manager set a new standard as an understandable and easy-to-apply organizational tool, allowing managers to summarize complex projects on a single information-rich page. This book, third in the OPPM series, describes how to combine the OPPM with the Toyota A3 report to create an enhanced, integrated management tool. With a refreshingly clear style, the authors walk users through implementing the OPPM/A3 using a variety of real-world case studies, as well as their own experience at O.C. Tanner Company.

Praise for The One-Page Project Manager "Executives want the answers to two questions: Where are we today? Where will we end up?

Making this part of your Project Management methodology will simplify and improve your project communication, especially for busy executives." -Harold D. Kerzner, PhD, Senior Executive Director, International Institute for Learning, Inc.
