  Project Reset - A Fresh Path for...

  It began with the authors, 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 success. 
  Project Reset addresses these challenges by offering clear and logical definitions, and a unified language for project management. The authors boldly challenge outdated concepts like the "Project Triangle" and the "Project Life Cycle," replacing them with an innovative, people-centered, and investment-driven approach: The Project Investment Chain®. This transformative framework provides readers with an actionable approach to achieve meaningful and sustainable results. 
  The future of project management starts here. 
  Reset your mindset. Redefine success.

  Value is intended to give managers an accessible and short guide to first the foundations and then the applications of corporate foundations. Not bogged down in math equations or heavy analysis, the book is a much more qualitative approach to what the authors consider a lost art. The first section discusses the four foundational principles of corporate finance: 1. Value is driven by growth, ROIC, and the sustainability of these; 2. Share price is driven by expectations for future performance; 3. Price is driven by the value conceived by others; and 4. One must use the pizza principal to decide whether value has really been created. The pizza principal says you can get more pizza by either making the pie bigger or by taking a share of other pies. The second section applies the theory of value creation to our economy. The authors argue that real value creation comes from innovation and competitive advantage, which manifests into high returns on capital and growth. In the third section of the book, the authors discuss ways to maintain and grow value through mergers, acquisitions, and portfolio management. The final section addresses how to ensure that your company has the right governance, performance measurement, and internal discussions to encourage value-creating decisions.
