Description
In a recent US survey, Robert Charette reported that Project Managers were struggling to cope with the changing Business environment. Challenges facing Project Managers include:
• Lack of budget or time to establish stable processes in highly compressed schedules
• The need for innovative new solutions to Business initiatives
• Insufficient planning
• Redundant work caused by sudden changes in priorities
• Too many dependencies with other projects
• Competition for resources with other projects
• Slow decision making
In this highly-provocative and challenging Masterclass, Extreme Project Management will be explored. The workshop will provide a forum for experienced Project Managers to come to grips with the new world of Project Management.
Each student will receive a copy of Thomsett’s book “Radical Project Managementâ€.
