[PAST EVENT] Alumni Webinar: Project Success/Project Failure: Setting Your Project Up For Success
October 16, 2013
All day
Location
Online Webinar: Registration Information TBA!
Although project management is a well-developed competency in many organizations, projects continue to fail to achieve the objectives set for them. The key drivers of project success and causes of failure are known; less understood are the approaches that project managers can implement to set their projects up for success.
This webinar will review some of the key causes of project success and failure and discuss some approaches project managers and senior leaders might use to put their projects on a path to success.
Key take-aways include:
- A better way of looking at and defining project success
- An understanding of key drivers of project success and failure
- Some best practices to help set your projects up for success
