Mounir transformed my approach to project management, encouraging a more advanced and critical mindset.
I’ve read this book and absolutely loved it. It nails the reality of the project management industry today. This book takes a completely different approach. In fact, I see it as a call for a revolutionary shift in how the industry has operated since the last century.
Amr Maraie,Project Management Practitioner
Mounir Ajam. You have done a great thing for me and I am sure many others, and for that I thank you. In a world that appears to be flooded with low thought, low impact copy / paste AI generated content, yours always does what I really want from any content - it makes me think.
If anyone else within the Project Management and associated space is looking for those that truly add value here in LinkedIn, and not those that advertise themselves as 'LinkedIn Top Voice' (you know who you are) you can't go too far wrong with giving Mounir a follow.

As a corporate strategist, I found this book’s proposal to elevate project management to an executive-level function both bold and necessary. It cuts through the noise with data and practical frameworks that make transformation not only possible but measurable. A must-read for anyone overseeing portfolios or capital investments.

Vision Realized! speaks the language executives understand—ROI, governance, transformation. It builds a strong case for embedding PM into strategic planning, not just execution.

Well envisioned, a collection of case studies and a possible remedy, that faces every leader, at every level of an organization, of any size.
The author takes the reader who is a leader, from the unavoidable chaos of complex systems of people, process and technology, on a journey to an organized destination of their own making, to reliably create value and improved predictability of success.
This is the missing roadmap for those who think a certification and time invested will achieve all the lofty goals promised, all those years ago.
Quit wasting MORE time and money, and learn from someone who has done it and provides real-world examples along the journey of the foundational elements that deliver!
Pick up your favorite medium for this title and begin the process to pivot yourself and help others achieve those things, limited only by one’s ability to DREAM BIG!
