A 90-minute webinar presenting a structured method for troubled project recovery that takes advantage of agile management methods.
We’ve all heard the
stories of projects
that are in trouble due to constantly-changing requirements (“scope
creep”) and
the devastating impact that this has on project plans and teams. How do we avoid getting
caught in “design
churn”? Other
projects get in trouble
because they lack effective sponsorship and communication with
stakeholders. How
do we deal with long
lists of requirements raised by these stakeholders in the face of short
timelines and small budgets?
Agile project management is a field that
has emerged over the past decade to deal with these situations. While there are
many different agile
management methods, they all share some common characteristics and
techniques
that are perfect for turning around many troubled projects.
