Bring your projects back from the dead
We’ve all been there – neck deep in a project burning with fever and sliding off the rails. Blown budgets, steaming clients, a timeline doomed from the start. Join PM first responders, Carson and Rachel in the proverbial operating room for some intensive project first aid. We’ll lay the worst examples on the table, assess their vitals, and with your help, develop an emergency care plan to bring our projects back from the dead. Be prepared to get your hands dirty. This will be a fast-paced, intensive workshop filled with real-world case studies, including past horror stories from our very own DPM speakers. Like a brain zapping game of Operation, you’ll be in for one crazy ride.
You’ll learn:
- How to assess your project’s vitals: the good, the bad, the just plain ugly
- How to create an immediate care plan to stop the bleeding
- How a prevention plan can keep your ongoing projects bright eyed while keeping your new ones out of the O.R.
