Let's add an 11th point!
I liked the fact that the author recommended working with a PMP (Project Management Professional).
Today I am taking my PMP Certification test and even if I don't pass, I'm glad I took a PMP Prep class as it gives the individual the full "do it right" depth required.
I found myself in a pm leadership role years ago and all I knew about pm was to develop a schedule and then cross your fingers!
In summary, my 11th point is to pursue becoming a PMP
