Synopsis

Project Reset: Rethinking Success, Empowering Change

This book began with Andreas Trautner and Lasse Hasselstrøm from DIS/CREADIS Project Excellence Consulting failing with their respective projects. Now, after a decade and a half of study and research, they reveal several shared truths about projects:

• Projects often fail for the same well-known reasons.
• Projects that fail, fail from the start.
• Organizations that attempt to address these issues are likely to fail.
• These challenges have persisted for decades.

These recurring issues stem from a deeper, systemic problem: the lack of consensus on fundamental definitions within project management. Instead, each framework, methodology, method and ideology offers its own interpretation of what constitutes a project, project success, project management and what a project manager is — with different academic schools contributing their own perspectives as well.

As a result, projects often become "Towers of Confusion" — modern-day equivalents of the Tower of Babel — where differing cultures and languages hinder effective communication and project success.

Project Reset addresses these challenges by offering clear and logical definitions, and a unified language for project management. The authors boldly challenge outdated and flawed concepts like the "Project Triangle" and the "Project Life Cycle."

Packed with real-world insights, practical applications, and forward-thinking strategies, Project Reset is essential for anyone working with projects. Whether you’re a seasoned leader or new to project management, this book will reshape your approach and understanding of project management and existing methodologies and approached.

The future of project management starts here.
Reset your mindset. Redefine success.
