5.0 out of 5 stars Wish I'd had this book for my last Identity project, June 6, 2008
By Jake (Seattle, Wa) - See all my reviews
We had just run through an identity project and it tanked - badly. Our company was given all sorts of advice by "Industry Analyst" firms and inbound consultants from several large service delivery companies. In the end, none of it made a difference in our politically charged environment. If our stakeholders could have taken a more measured approach, such as outlined in "IAM Success Tips: Volume1", the results could have been so much better.

Having read "Digital Identity" and other well-known books in the space, here is what I can say about "IAM Success Tips: Volume 1"

--It is not designed as the standard techie or business book. If you're looking for detailed, bit-level discussion of Federation standards, Kerberos, configuring connectors, agents, integration issues, adapters and the like, this book is not for you. On the other hand, if you're interested in getting everyone on the same page and designing a long-lasting successful program that has a good chance of staying on budget and on target with manageability, this book *is* for you

--The book seems to be designed to follow in a course of subsequent volumes, and this is referenced in the book as well. Project Management, Implementation Details, and other facets of the "Six Stages" discussed in this book, will be covered in later volumes

--The book is clearly written, and contains useful examples. Moreover, it attempts to reduce the mystery surrounding identity management acronyms. I shared this book with a couple of non-technical managers, and they were able to follow along easily

--The book starts with a detailed introduction, then gets right into the tips. The tips in this book are written in mostly consecutive order, with a strong emphasis on how to start the right way before even beginning. In some ways, it reminded me of Sun Tsu's statement of "every battle is won, before it is ever fought." So true with large IT projects!!

--Following the tips, is an appendix section which covers a plethora of issues, from identity-related regulations, to role modeling. I found this section to be especially useful for additional background information I had not seen covered elsewhere on the web

Favorite parts of the book:

--The Appendix - as noted above. Provides some useful background from someone who has obviously done this in the real world, instead of philosophizing about "best practices"

-- Tip #10: "Identifying the Stakeholders With the Most to Win or Lose"

This is one of the many valuable ways in which the book tackles tough political topics. Few seem to understand, my company included, that politics and culture make or break projects, not technology. (Though technology can cause its own set of issues.) The stakeholder tips were well worth the read and will be useful in my next project.

Overall, I would highly recommend this book. It is concise, well-written, useful, not too long and not too short, and easy to follow.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Start for IAM projects, January 14, 2009
IAM Volume 1 is a good book and audio to learn about Identity Management. It offers some practical wisdom. I enjoyed listening to IAM audio book. The biggest advantage is that it reinforces the principles and techniques learned from the IAM hand book. I am glad that I came across IAM hand book and audio book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Taking Identity Access Management to the Next Level, April 14, 2008
I bought this book from another site but am now buying it for a colleague of mine as a gift. I can't say enough about this book. I had a project with a Fortune 100 company with a limited budget and time line so I needed all the advantages I could get to complete the project successfully. I used tips and advice from this book which literally saved me countless hours, headaches and meetings with demanding project managers on just how to successfully complete my project. This book helped me understand the crucial "preplanning" steps required for a program of that size, and with the advice in this book, I was finally able to convince management to send us offsite for a few days to come up with the right program concept to understand the real business value and goals. A great tool with an easy to understand format. I'm looking forward to the next book.
