About this listen
Anderson explores more than 70 of these techniques, aligned around the five phases of traditional Program and Project Management and applied through a unique five step Design Thinking model. In this way, he sets the stage for improved time-to-value as he outlines Program and Project Management in the context of broadly understanding, deeply empathizing, defining, solutioning, and finally deploying and realizing value.
Sample techniques include Building to Think, considering Adjacent Spaces, Aligning Strategy to Time Horizons, capturing Silent Design outcomes, Probing for Understanding, Divergent Thinking, Empathy Mapping, Persona Analysis, Ideating & Brainstorming, Inclusive & Sensitive Design, Increasing Shared Identity, Day in the Life Analyses, Edge Case Thinking, Story Telling, Modular Building, Prototyping, Iterating, The Five Why’s, Scaling for Effectiveness, Testing to Learn, Simple Rules, Guiding Principles, The Rule of Threes, Premortems, Brainstorming in Reverse, Backporting, and more...
This book is about Finishing what we Start and Delivering what we have Promised to our users and our stakeholders. Anderson concludes each chapter with content-specific Guiding Principles. And to reinforce learnings and apply key principles, a simple case study spans each chapter, complete with Questions and Answers. Finally, a robust Appendix of all the applied Design Thinking Techniques concludes the book, along with an invitation to help improve the book through some of these same techniques.
Many really good books offer advice on project management, business innovation, leadership, and getting hard things DONE, but Design Thinking for Program and Project Management is the first to bring these areas together in a way that's uniquely useful yet understandable and actionable. For those seeking to realize the promises of transformation and progress in the midst of complexity and ambiguity, this book provides a unique recipe for leading well, thinking differently, and delivering value with speed.

My curiosity was peaked for the GenAI voice factor.
I was ultimately disappointed by the abject lacy of editing.
The content is packed with aging tropes and material that been published elsewhere.
the voicing, though pleasant, suffered for all the pregnant pauses aphrasing. cadence in phrasing.
The nail in the coffin was the reading of so many indexes... that is and absolute waste of compute time and in this book... personal time.
I'm sure GenAI will lean to improve rapidly, but this book is not worth the time.
