Will your big project succeed or fail? According to University of Oxford professor Bent Flyvbjerg and New York Times best-selling author Dan Gardner, the answer depends on a set of heuristics that can help you navigate key decisions. In How Big Things Get Done, the authors explore how psychology and power help deciders and doers think, judge, and form decisions in complex, ambiguous, and risky environments and then jockey for the positioning and resources they need to succeed. While their expertise is in truly "big" projects such as national politics, high-speed rail systems, and global bond markets, they believe you can apply their lessons learned to promote change, implement new programs, launch a business, write a book, or even renovate your home.
