New Whitepaper by Chris Vandersluis for the "From the Trenches" column: The Executive Connection

We're excited to announce that we recently published a new whitepaper by Chris Vandersluis for the "From the Trenches" column in the Project Server TechCenter.  The whitepaper is titled The Executive Connection and discusses the importance of executive involvement to having a successful EPM deployment. This is the latest in a series of whitepapers by Chris, all dealing with deploying the EPM solution in the real-world based on his many years of experience. Chris is an excellent writer, so I urge you to read this article and previous ones that he has written for the From the Trenches column. You can access them by clicking here.
