Zusatztext Reviews of the first edition: 'What spurred me to open the book and delve into its contents was the fact I had heard Gerald Bradley speak at the BPPM summit at Heathrow earlier in the year and had found that talk both interesting and practical in providing a way into benefit management. I am pleased I made the effort. The book brings together in one place everything you might need to implement successful benefit realisation. It is easy to read and logically structured...Sometimes a book will be published that fills a need within the market. This book is one of those. It provides a master class on the subject! enabling understanding and providing the tools to allow project managers to implement practical and viable processes to identify! track and measure benefits. If you buy one book on benefit realisation management for your organisation then I suggest you buy this.' - ed Burney-Cumming in Project 'I read the book with keen interest as somebody who has been heavily involved in bringing about change and ensuring benefits required by Directors are achieved. Whilst reading I have frequently said to myself "if only I had known! appreciated that at the time". The book is a source of many useful and practical insights for any individual or organisation really wanting to achieve the benefits they expect of their change initiatives. It is not a book of theory but one of practical application and how to overcome the inevitable pitfalls that will be experienced in successfully bringing about change. You might not agree with all the points Gerald makes but you will find his ideas and comments challenging and thought provoking. I thoroughly recommend the book for those facing the challenge of supporting their organisation in realising its goals.' Brian Cowley! Head of Business Change!
