Book description
Drive Strategy With Simplicity-On A Single Sheet Of Paper!
The One-Page Project Manager set a new standard as an
understandable and easy-to-apply organizational tool, allowing
managers to summarize complex projects on a single information-rich
page. This book, third in the OPPM series, describes how to combine
the OPPM with the Toyota A3 report to create an enhanced, integrated
management tool. With a refreshingly clear style, the authors walk
users through implementing the OPPM/A3 using a variety of real-world
case studies, as well as their own experience at O. C. Tanner Company.
Rich with tools, templates, and teaching, the emphasis throughout
remains on maintaining simplicity across the
organization-communicating the right information to the right people
at the right time to get the right things done.
Praise for The One-Page Project Manager
"Executives want the answers to two questions: Where are we
today? Where will we end up? Do you really believe this cannot be
accomplished on a single sheet of paper? The One-Page Project Manager
series of books is encouraging you to do just that. Making this part
of your Project Management methodology will simplify and improve your
project communication, especially for busy
executives."

International Institute for Learning, Inc.
Clark Campbell fills a void and bridges a communication gap that has
long existed between company executives and project or program
managers. OPPM successfully links corporate strategy to those in the
trenches managing projects."

productivity, cut cycle times, reduce inventories, and sustain
