This work takes a critical look at some of the biggest project management blunders in history, offering practical advice and turnaround solutions for each case. It covers: how to spot the early warning signs of trouble, how to make contingency plans, the real importance of strategy and execution, when to bail out, and how to turn project failures into successes. Among the 17 case studies examined are the Tacoma narrows Suspension Bridge (also known as the Galloping Gertie), Sydney Opera House, various nuclear power plants that never pay for themselves, and the Channel Tunnel.
