Rescuing Troubled Projects: a step-by-step guide Description: Rescuing a troubled project should be the jewel in any project manager’s crown. This step-by-step guide uses a methodical approach based on a careful combination of some of the tools addressed in the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK) and the PRINCE 2 standards. The approach is based on treating the troubled project as though it was a new one; going through all five phases of initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and close out, and using an “Issues?breakdown?structure” instead of the regular WBS. The tools alone are never enough. This presentation also looks at the human aspects of rescuing a troubled project: motivating the team and re?building their shattered morale, managing stakeholder expectations, and adjusting project communications and conflict management. After a 200% schedule overrun, and a 280% cost overrun, the presenter was able to rescue a project using the techniques in this guide, will they work for you? Speaker: Emad E. Aziz, PMP, PRINCE2P, CSSGB Track: Construction / Oil, Gas, and Renewable Energy / IT and Agile Project Management |
