Best Books for Project and Program Management (7 books)

Project and Program Managers have to organize and lead complex activities but often have no one reporting to them directly. To be effective they employ structure, relationship building, and leadership skills to become change agents who deliver amazing results. These are the books that I believe train the mindsets and skills that take a project manager from good to great.
