Projects often seem to have a soul. They require dedication, belief and commitment. The only way to gain experience of a project, assess and develop the skills associated with it is to live through it. The six micro-projects in this collection highlight the kinds of skills typical of creative project teams. They can be used to practise: � team working in a project environment � working as a team to satisfy a need expressed in terms of time, cost and quality � the skills associated with creativity, problem solving and team leadership � the guiding principles for tackling projects creatively. The collection includes the following games: Eggbox is a creative project that emphasizes idea generation; Ironbridge simulates a scenario in which consortia explore the specifications of a construction project; Tower of Straws produces a situation in which change is frequent and normal; Domino Race is based on an imaginative design project that needs to reflect operational constraints; Catapult is an all-day task offering a complete project management experience and, finally, the Autonomous Team Activity encourages productivity and initiative in the project team.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46931387187351,"sku":"9781138460973","price":15501.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138460973.webp?v=1771613007","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/micro-projects-six-exercises-for-developing-project-and-team-skills-9781138460973","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
