Praise for the previous edition of The Handbook of Program Management : "Brown's book captures the essential skills of program and project management. It serves as a 'how to' guide for those entering the business, as well as a refresher on the skills and attributes for those ready to take the next step. The book effectively defines the leader’s role in creating the team culture and environment for success." -- Eugene F. Kranz, Apollo 13 Flight Director, author of Failure Is Not an Option , and retired Director NASA Space Operations "Program management is one of the toughest jobs a person can hold…and James Brown knows Program Management. Here's a chance to learn from the scar tissue of others rather than your own." -- Norman R. Augustine, retired Chairman and CEO, Lockheed Martin Corporation "Finally, a pragmatic book that shares the secrets behind successful program management.

I am a PMP, but the company I work for does not have a PMO or even recognize formal project management processes. It's a great company that uses tried and true procedures for managing projects, but they could improve their projects by improving their processes.My new job is mostly program management. I can't bring formal project and program management to the whole company, but can to my business unit. I was looking for some good direction for this, and came across this book. There is not a lot out there on program management, but this book had great content and reviews.This book is amazing! It will be some I keep by my desk all the time. I was struggling at my new position trying to integrate a PMO into an organization with existing policies and procedures, and putting this plan on paper. As I read this book, the ideas just fell into place. My staff was excited to see a clear and written plan for our business unit and the defined roles and responsibilities. This book helped me to see the areas I needed to focus on.I now have a clearly defined path forward that is already improving our PMO. If you oversee project managers in your organization, or have the ability to influence those that do, this is a must read for you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Read and Valuable Insight! *by on Reviewed in the United States March 3, 2017* I would recommend this book to anyone looking for valuable guidance around Program and Project Management. Over the years I have had the privilege of attending seminars and presentations by Dr. Brown. Just like in person, Dr. Brown makes dry information interesting, relevant, and applicable to the profession. In the book, he does a great job at analyzing each of the key focus areas around Program Management and offering real world scenarios and recommendations to address these in your work environment. I have already found myself implementing a few of the recommendations in our organization and will be referring back to this book in the future. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ New to Program Management *by on Reviewed in the United States October 28, 2017* As a new program manager, I found the information in the book quite helpful. I am interested in implementing the techniques in the book. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Handbook of Program Management: How to Facilitate Project Success with Optimal Program Management, Second Edition - The Standard for Program Management - Practitioner's Guide to Program Management --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8182567-the-handbook-of-program-management-how-to-facilitate-project-success](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8182567-the-handbook-of-program-management-how-to-facilitate-project-success) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
