Description
A book cover design for a new Hard/Paperback entitled "A Project Manager's Guide to Influence".by Colin Gautrey. You can see previous publication at http://www.learntoinfluence.com/books
This is a serious publication for serious people. It is simple and practical and needs to have a contemporary style for the business market. This is the first of a series of books which will all be ".... Guide to Influence" to cater for other occupational groups. This design needs to be created with that in mind, however Project Manager must be prominent. The latest book, Influential Leadership cannot be imitated due to contracts, however that design is something we quite like. The design should not have people on it so that it is as inclusive as possible. Not looking for anything complicated or clever, just a business book that is striking and professional.

Here is the draft back cover:
Are you a project manager feeling stuck? Are you struggling to deliver without having the necessary time, resources, commitment, control and influence? Well, you're not alone.
It seems that today most project managers seem to be feeling the pressure. The combination of increasing complexity, pace of change and scarcity of resources are conspiring to outwit even the most experienced campaigners.
Not everyone faces these difficult problems. The enlightened few have adopted a different mindset and are now able to sail through these challenges with ease. They have learned how to become influential.
The goal of this book is to show you how easy this can be. It will introduce you to simple processes that you can use to understand complex environments. Then, it will help you to build clear strategies and plans to exert high levels of influence for the benefit of you and your project. In short, it will help you to become an influential project manager.
Based on the author's earlier work in Advocates and Enemies, this book offers a practical way of making things happen. Large or small, internal or external, all project managers can benefit from this book.
