Pro tip (not from this book): it's not by making them more complex.
See the title:
> Executive's Guide to Project Management: Organizational Processes and Practices for Supporting Complex Projects
Uses "project" twice.
Aren't these synonyms?: management; process; practice; supporting.
Do executives exist outside of organisations? Isn't this redundant? Actually do executive have any other role to do except manage?
If you were actually trying to manage complexity and therefore keep things lean you'd cull that redundancy. See this is all that's needed:
> Executive's Guide to Complex Projects
(and Senior Management Teams) cos gee he uses the term SMT often.
This encapsulates this extremely self-indulgent book.
