Each model has a unique graphic, a brief description, and bullet points that highlight key points of the model. In addition, there is a full page discussion of the model and each of the key points.

Models is a truly unique book. The models themselves make the book different and interesting to learn. They will also be extremely easy to remember and to use in your day to day activities. Using models in your IT management or project management activities is a natural thing to do.

Some of the models like Bite the head of a frog provide a meaningful management principle and insight while taking a more fun approach to the situation.
