About this listen

Is your desire to become a winning project leader? Do you want to achieve more than an ordinary project manager?

Seventy-five percent of organizations rank leadership skills as most important for the successful projects (The Project Management Institute).

You can make well over $100,000 with experience and leadership (ProjectManager.com).

Leading projects is a complex task, and project managers fight on several fronts. Many feel like they’re rolling a heavy boulder up a steep hill when dealing with difficult stakeholders and team members.

But what are the secrets of those who always win during meetings? Why servant leaders have so many followers? Which leadership skills are essential for a project manager?

A project manager can achieve a lot - but a project leader with their team shoot goals and create real values.

This audiobook will reveal:

  • Nine leadership areas of a successful CEO and project manager
  • How to turn conflicts to your advantage
  • Six bulletproof tips to solve complex problems
  • Steps to build your performing team
  • 11 ways to break barriers
  • Servant leadership for a successful project
  • Effective delegation of tasks
  • How to influence and persuade your stakeholders
  • Bonus: A negotiation checklist that includes advanced techniques

I have described all the soft skills you will need. You can choose negotiation, active listening, problem solving, or any other skill, follow the instructions and practice it, and your success is inevitable. Once you develop your talent for this, you’ll discover whole new worlds opening up for your dream career.

Open the door, and nobody will close it!

I believe that your deep desire is to become a project leader. If you agree with me then you should listen to this audiobook!

I found thebook very practical for non-project managers. I lead many initiatives and process improvements that can be managed as little projects. I cooperate with people, and there, the leadership skills come into play. Peter offers all leadership, interpersonal and communication skills that are essential for project management. I particularly liked advanced problem-solving skills. I struggled with certain conflict situations, but the advice to classify them per category helped me view them differently and apply an effective method. The author provides basic and advanced techniques accompanied by a practical negotiation checklist that helps me prepare for difficult meetings. The narration is very engaging.

I am not a professional project manager but have broad management experience. Projects create situations that are more intensive than my daily management routine. Therefore, I recommend this book to any manager. If you can lead projects, then you can lead a process or department.
