Is there such a thing as heroic project management? Maybe in the UK!
25 April 2015 – London, UK – Tom Taylor, President of APM and one of the best known project management characters in the UK, has authored an interesting new article in the April edition of the PM World Journal. His article titled “Standard and Heroic Project Management: Impact on perceived success”, can now be found in the PM World Library
According to Tom in this article, “For some time I have been interested in and studying apparent differences between standard project management and heroic project management – and their impacts on achieving perceived success. Does heroic project management come from heroes and heroines who are constantly being heroic and always going the extra mile – they just cannot stop themselves!? Or is heroic project management most noticeable and appropriate when the going gets really tough (and only then); or when blame is on the horizon - or right up close; or when vital team members are not performing adequately; or difficult truths and real power need to be introduced to each other – or kept well apart?”
