How to Measure Anything in Project Management
Leading a successful project requires more than haphazard KPIs and OKRs. In this book, management experts Douglas Hubbard, Alexander Budzier and Andreas Bang Leed present a practical framework for decision making and risk management grounded in measurement.
The authors argue that everything that matters to project management can be measured. Drawing on the expansive Oxford Global Projects Database, they reveal how many popular methods amount to “analysis placebo” and offer instead robust, hands‑on tools.
- Measure what matters using proven techniques and simple tools.
- Identify and avoid “analysis placebo” and overconfidence.
- Quantify risk, forecast outcomes and manage uncertainty.
- Incorporate environmental and social impacts into your decisions.
