“Who better than Antonio to write this instrumental, thought-provoking and a refreshing eye-opener on bringing to the readers a completely renewed vision of project management ?”
Yves Pigneur, University of Lausanne professor, co-author of the Business Model Canvas.
“As organizations create the next normal, increasingly their leaders recognize they operate in a project economy. Said another way it is a project world. It is long past the time to close the gap between strategy development and delivery and it begins by recognizing all strategic change happens through projects and programs. Antonio’s latest book, the HBR Project Management Handbook, couldn’t come soon enough as a critical resource to enable the delivery of strategic change.”
Mark Langley, former President and CEO Project Management Institute

“The project management book for the Boardroom. Antonio explains why poor project delivery is simply no longer tenable. Through his own experience and insightful case studies, he highlights the need for meaningful project sponsorship to reverse this trend. His project canvas moves the focus from project deliverables to business outcomes. To compete in the future; senior managers will need project management skills, this should be their “go-to” book.“
