Overview
Project Success Mentor is a freestanding Android app that assists Project Managers, Programme Directors and PMO Managers to set up their projects for
success when using any methodology. It is specifically designed to show technical leaders how to move to become business project managers. It shows
you how to identify, record and properly manage:
• Benefits
• Business Processes
• Capabilities
• Capacities
• Change Resistance and Barriers to Use
• Critical Success Factors
• Culture (the 27Fs)
• Expectations
• Initiating a Project
• Moments of Truth
• Organisation Change (Transformations)
• Outcomes
• Project Assurance
• Risks
• Stakeholders
• Starting up a Project
• Success Criteria
• Transformative Activities
• and much more
so that your projects will be a success.
Project Success Mentor comes complete with over 300 A4 pages of text, diagrams and check lists. Not only does it tell you how to do things, it provides you
with many seed project registers/logs (eg, objectives, assumptions, risks, critical success factors, success criteria, etc) to kick-start your project’s
register/logs. There are over 60 lists of standard project register/log contents each containing hundreds of pre-defined and pre-categorised items. Use
them as templates for your own project's registers/logs or just to see how to structure your project's registers (eg, how to structure a Risk Breakdown
Structure (RBS) and a Product Breakdown Structure (PBS)).
The texts within Project Success Mentor are cross-referenced and integrated. This means that you can drill-down on key terms to view their definition and
description.
Project Success Mentor also features:
• An overall project success framework and lexicon
• Many practical (from the trenches) tips and tricks
• Designed for both novice and experienced project managers
• Tailoring to your preference for methodology (PRINCE2, PMBOK, Scrum, Consulting Engagement)
• Pre-sales activities performed by enterprises that perform projects on behalf of external customers
so that you will feel right at home using it.
Achieving project success is much more than "to scope, on time and within budget".
Project Success Mentor is not about keeping your projects on track, but getting them on track in the first place.
Put simply, if you are a project manager then this is one app that you must install and use before the world ends!
