Dr. Wu’s Publications
Project management can be a tremandous force for good. By raising the awaress of project management (e.g. its importance and power), understanding of how it works (both what to do and what to avoid), increasing performance (through improving methods, tools, and techniques), and engaging in an open discussion (e.g., to continuously improve the field), organizations and even societies can do so much more (and preferably with spending much less). As an advocate for the profession, Dr. Te Wu writes and speaks frequently.
