Title: Hard to get anything out of
Review: As a current practicing software development project manager, I was hoping for strategies of engagement, tips and tricks on how to work best with stakeholders, and common best and worst practices. Unfortunately, this book reads like a glommed-together survey of current research and techniques. Tips like "have a defined methodology for your project" aren't helpful to me. I really wasn't able to get anything useful to my day-to-day life out of this.On the other hand, if I was looking to write a paper on the field of stakeholder management, this seemed to provide a pretty wide introduction and set of pointers into the literature and current research.
