“Glue offers a rare gift to project managers. It artfully blends specific step-by-step recommendations of how to move from project management to project leadership with the psychological rationale for taking those steps.”- Robert B. Cialdini, author of Influence and Pre-Suasion
An Essential Guide to Get Stuff Done

The author’s methods have been battle-tested against real technology projects. Her insight and vision reach beyond theory into application and can be used immediately regardless of the length, scope, or phase of your project—whether it’s planning a wedding, remodeling a home, or leading a team in a major website revamp or product launch or company start-up.
You’ll learn— How to get started when you don’t know much—yet How to lay a solid foundation for your project How to support a project and a team that’s in flight How to communicate (yah, that’s a thing), how to reward (candy works), how to take notes (yes, please), and how to map out your project with Post-it notes
