Den engelske udgave af bogen som beskriver de tre principper metoden bygger på: Impact, flow og leadership. Hver af disse elementer understøttes af tre metoder. Disse tre principper anvendes i det enkelte projekt og i organisationens porteføljeledelse. Udover disse metoder beskriver bogen også hvordan Half Double metoden tilpasses den enkelte organisation. Dette kaldes ”local translation” i bogen. De tre bærende principper i metoden kan kort beskrives som:

Impact: I modsætning til andre agile metoder er fokus på projektets effekt fremfor leverancerne. Leverancerne er et middel til at opnå den ønskede effekt. For at sikre hurtig effekt anvendes tre metoder: Impact casen, impact solution design og pulscheck. 

Flow: Princippet skal sikre et hurtigt flow af idéer, resultater og læring. For at skabe dette flow anvendes tre metoder som meget kort kan beskrives som: Sæt teamet sammen, skab rytme i projektet og brug visuelle metoder.

Leadership: Som en overbygning på andre agile metoder fokuserer Half Double på lederskabet. Dette sikres gennem følgende ledelsesmæssige adfærd: En aktiv projektejer, en faciliterende projektleder og en reflekterende og adaptiv tankegang: Både projektejer og projektleder skal se ændringer i omgivelserne som muligheder fremfor trusler. Fokus skal være på læring og justering for at sikre den største effekt.

“While reading the Half Double book, I felt both deeply reassured and provoked. Reassured as the hands-on principles, methods and tools confirm what I believe to be the way forward. Provoked, as it also made me realize how caught up in the outdated way of thinking about and acting in projects we still are”

“I received the book Half Double a couple of days ago and read it almost all at once – terrific!!! Congrats on the initiative layout book and co-creation methodology – highly aligned with my own mindset! I have been working for many years publishing papers and advising companies about PM approach. The Half Double approach (impact; flow; leadership) has many of my thoughts supported and related to Project Design”.

“Half Double is an easy to read, great colorful layout, energizing and inspirational book. The theory and hands-on principles and tools are explained and the real life examples make this book a must read for those who are directing or running projects in this more and more rapidly changing world and for those who would like to move away from some outdated ways of thinking and running projects”.
