Meer over het boek

Giant projects frequently encounter significant failures, as illustrated by historical and contemporary examples like the Tower of Babel and the Transrapid Train. This analysis identifies four key success factors for managing such projects: goal formulation and adaptability, basic configuration, socio-political context, and management structure. Emphasizing the project owner's vital role, the book provides insights and recommendations aimed at owners, project managers, and contractors to enhance the likelihood of successful project completion.
