After having been a project manager for years a first program to manage is quite a journey. It requires different skills and focus areas. Samir Penkar takes his readers through a personal journey. Benefit management, stakeholder engagement by talking instead of emailing and planning at a much higher level than he was used to is explored and explained. No, this is not a typical text book or teaching of a specific method, not at all. Follow Susan Codwell, Program Manager for FitAtWork Inc. in her struggles, leading and growing into the role of program manager. From Projects to Programs: A Project Manager's Journey is an easy to understand, readable story I could relate to. Each short chapter includes questions to reflect upon. The inner workings of a program, differences between a program and a project will help you in your journey.
I found this book very engaging. The story narrative was especially impressive and gave a thorough understanding of not just the processes and management strategies that need to change as one transitions from projects to programs, but it also touched upon the work-life aspect and changes in managing ones own self during the transition. I also enjoyed the reflection section after the chapters to help grasp concepts. The interviews at the end of the book are also very stimulating.
I just completed reading the book. It is very engaging right from the first chapter. I read the entire book at one go. The book is unique in that no author has attempted a narrative story-telling style to describe program management practices like the way Samir has. Certainly a brilliant effort in my opinion.
Excellent book, as a teacher I found it extremely useful and it turned out to be very engaging for students. As a program manager I could totally relate to the experiences of the characters in the book. I would definitely recommend it.
