Winner, 2023 NYC Big Book Award "A clear-eyed call to reevaluate project-based teams in the days of remote work." –Publishers Weekly, BookLife review For decades, organizations of all sizes and in all industries have struggled at managing projects. Even though employees primarily worked together in physical offices, rare was the project that came in on time and on budget and delivered what stakeholders expected. The M-F/9-5 in-person world of work is gone forever. Depending on the country, more than nine in ten people would rather quit their jobs than return to the office five days per week. Brass tacks: Remote and hybrid workplaces are here to stay, and they pose formidable obstacles that complicate managing projects and launching new products. Against this backdrop arrives Project Management in the Hybrid Workplace , Phil Simon’s timely and highly anticipated follow-up to his award-winning book Reimagining Collaboration . In his inimitable style, Simon adeptly fuses critical research and concepts from a slew of diverse and seemingly unrelated fields, including Agile software development, human resources, supply chain management, cognitive psychology, organizational behavior, and labor economics. Brimming with detailed case studies, penetrating insights, and practical advice, Simon’s twelfth book is a tour de force. Product owners, new and seasoned PMs, service providers, freelancers, small business owners, and students taking PM classes will benefit from Project Management in the Hybrid Workplace. "A great book. Not only does Simon make essential points about operations, he does so in a fun and interesting way." —Dr. Peter Cappelli, Professor of Management, University of Pennsylvania Wharton School and author of The Future of the Office "Simon's no-nonsense approach blasts through organizational theory and hits home where it matters. Project Management in the Hybrid Workplace details the why, the what, and the new, ever-important how of effective project management." —Darren Murph, Head of Remote at GitLab and author of Living the Remote Dream " Project Management in the Hybrid Workplace is a window into the real world of projects-formal and informal. It's a great read for project management professionals and the rest of us who just work on projects. (So, everyone.) I'm adding it to my recommendation list for new grads and anyone needing a boost in a new or current job." —Terri L. Griffith, Keith Beedie Chair in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Simon Fraser University and author of The Plugged-In Manager Thanks for checking out  Project Management in the Hybrid Workplace.
