The Project Revolution
By 2025, regardless of industry or sector, senior leaders and managers will spend at least
60% of their time selecting, prioritizing, and driving the execution of projects. In fact, soon
"we will all become project leaders, but many of us are not prepared for this shift.”

Widely used management disciplines are often linked to a few simple frameworks
that can be easily understood, and applied, not only by managers but also by the
majority of individuals. Porter’s Five Forces is a great example.
