Reinhard Wagner – författare

In the ten years since this Gower Handbook was first published, Programme Management has been transformed to become the vehicle of choice for realising the objectives of large scale, complicated, business, government and social investment. The Second Edition of this Gower Handbook is a completely new text; designed as a definitive guide to the current state of Programme Management. To that end the text offers foundation theory and knowledge around key issues such as, managing programme contracts, people and know-how, complexity and uncertainty, benefits and success measures, as well as every stage of the programme life cycle. The main central section of the book provides theory, tools, advice and examples of practical application from an industry context and covers sectors including construction, energy, aerospace and defence, IT, automotive and the public sector. The Handbook also includes a section with chapters on assessing and improving programme competences and developing maturity. Discrete chapters relate programme management to the international baselines and standards. Collectively, the Gower Handbook of Programme Management is most comprehensive guide to the subject that you can buy.

Reinhard Wagner stellt die Anforderungen an das Projektmanagement in der Automobilindustrie sowie wichtige Trends, Erfolgsfaktoren und Herausforderungen vor. Die Automobilindustrie ist eine der weltweit bedeutendsten Branchen. Seit mehr als 100 Jahren werden Automobile entwickelt und in Massenfertigung hergestellt. Die Konjunkturschwankungen der letzten Jahrzehnte haben Automobilhersteller und Zulieferer dazu veranlasst, sich auf ihre Kernkompetenzen zu fokussieren. Da Autos aber ein Kombinationsprodukt sind, ist eine Zusammenarbeit über Unternehmens- und zunehmend auch Landesgrenzen hinweg notwendig. Hier setzt erfolgreiches Projektmanagement an: Es integriert alle Beteiligten und hilft, anspruchsvolle Ziele für die Entwicklung und Fertigung von Fahrzeugen möglichst effizient zu erreichen.

Projektmanagement ist eine Schlüsselkompetenz für die Zukunftsfähigkeit der deutschen Automobilwirtschaft. Zusätzlich werden die unterschiedlichen Ansätze zur Professionalisierung des Projektmanagements dargestellt, wie etwa die Skalierung agiler Methoden.
