PMINJ 2008 March Meeting

Abstract

Most projects run in a safe and contained environment allowing individuals to hide behind corporate politics or bureaucracy. This presentation will look at a series of projects within the Third World countries and relate lessons learned to techniques developed to survive in the wilderness. The examples are based on projects run in countries that do not necessarily have the same advantages one would have managing a project in a first world country but can be very powerful tools to identify what we are doing wrong with the projects. The learnings can be utilized by all project managers in whatever project they are dealing with at the time and are brought in a format that allows for not only a quick understanding of lessons and techniques but also provides examples of how they can be utilized.

This session will cover the following learning objectives:

Identify techniques by which project managers can increase the human potential of their projects
Inspire project managers to go forth and utilize survival techniques to improve the quality of their projects
Identify 10 areas which could improve a company’s project management process
