Synopsis
This book introduces a model to understand and describe the process of selecting project managers in a government research laboratory. Based on interviews with executives responsible for making these decisions, the author reveals that while the process is often informal and subconscious, it follows a discernible pattern. The model presented in the book outlines the steps involved, including generating a list of potential candidates, defining the project, and making the final selection. The author explores the attributes desired in a candidate, categorizing them into technical, human, and conceptual skills. Through the examination of a hypothetical project and candidate pool, the model's validity is tested and discussed. This book provides valuable insights into the decision-making process in project management, offering a framework for understanding and potentially improving the selection of project managers.
