Ride it like you stole it, Baby!

Scrappy Project Management has consistently been among the top project management books on Amazon in the USA since launch in 2007, and frequently is in the top 10.

It’s in the top 100,000 of English books in Canada, Germany, France and Japan – everywhere Amazon sells except the UK, where scrappy means “messy” (poor title choice – sorry about that, blokes!) and China, where we can’t seem to get the books listed for some reason.

In 2010 the Kindle Version has been #1 in Total Quality Management and #2 in Production and Operations.

What’s Scrappy Project Management all about?

It’s about getting RESULTS . . .predictably . . . repeatably . . . and with fewer nasty surprises.  Here’s what one CEO has to say:

“As an old program manager myself, and now as President of a large technology company, I find your book spot on the money.  Your readers would do well to read the book several times and practice what your write until it becomes second nature.  The world around them would become a much better place – and the satisfaction that goes with high achievement would fuel a long and successful career.  While your book was written for program managers, it applies to anyone who works with people.  It is a must read, not just for leaders, but for anyone who depends on other people to get their work done.”   – Rick Cassidy, President, TSMC North America
