Thankfully, this book manages to take the reader on a journey with the story of team members led by the narrator who explains the nitty gritties of the task, broken down into easy to understand components. He even focusses on how various stakeholders shall communicate within the project. From planning to execution of the project, and even describing the project kick-off meeting, the complete roadmap is laid out systematically with effective delegation of roles within the team.
