Project Management Seminar: Project Management Screw-Up
Project Management Seminar
Tired of getting useless theory at a project management seminar? Then you need the Project Management Screw-Up project management seminar: the project management seminar that helps you avoid project screw-ups and successfully deliver projects.
Drawing on 20 years of frontline project management experience,
Lonnie Pacelli identifies the 18 most pervasive causes of
project failure: their causes, early warning signs, and how to
fix them before it’s too late. Based on his popular book The Project Management Advisor:
18 Major Project Screw-Ups And How To Cut Them Off At The Pass
This isn't just any cookie-cutter project management seminar; The Project Management Screw-Up project management seminar places deeper focus on those project management screw-ups which are most prevalent in your organization. The result is a project management seminar which is highly relevant to what your organization needs and can give some practical and immediate take-aways for you to put in place right away.
Each screw-up includes a description of the screw-up, how it happens, warnings signs, and techniques to help avoid and address the screw-up. Develop a customized seminar based upon these screw-ups:
-
Screw-up #1 – We weren’t addressing the right problem
-
Screw-up #2 - We designed the wrong thing
-
Screw-up #3 - We used the wrong technology
-
Screw-up #4 - We didn’t do a good project schedule
-
Screw-up #6 - The team didn’t gel
-
Screw-up #7 - We didn’t involve the right people
-
Screw-up #8 - We didn’t communicate what we were doing
-
Screw-up #9 - We didn’t pay attention to project risks and management issues
-
Screw-up #10 - The project cost much more than expected
-
Screw-up #11 - We didn’t understand and report progress against the plan
-
Screw-up #12 - We tried to do too much
-
Screw-up #13 - We didn’t do enough testing
-
Screw-up #14 - We weren’t effective at training the customer
-
Screw-up #15 - We didn’t pull the plug on the project when we should have
-
Screw-up #16 - We tripped at the finish line
-
Screw-up #17 – The vendor didn’t deliver
-
Screw-up #18 – We had no fallback position in case the product failed
