There’s a New Sheriff in Town

Take as a projectmanager advantage of this guide to successfully take over ongoing projects and get the work done.

As a projectmanager you are facing the challenge of taking over an ongoing project. By the way….you are not the only one: a recent global survey revealing that 67% of projects finish with a different Project Manager that they started with, almost all Project Management methodologies and books assume a fresh project start. The reality is that few PMs have full control over the triple constraints (scope/quality, budget, and schedule) when joining an existing project team.

So…do you know how to lead a project that someone else started? You know taking over an existing project is not the same as starting from scratch. Are you frustrated by PM books that assume that the PM has a blank canvas, when most of the time you are taking over projects that have already started? Then this session is for you!  Learn about a proven road map to successfully complete projects, regardless of their current status.

Topics of interest in this session are:

• Having a well-structured plan for assuming leadership of an ongoing project
• Rapidly determining the true status of an existing project
• Identifying if there are any key issues and challenges
• Utilizing leverage points to turn around troubled projects and teams
• Tactics to keep the project team focused and committed despite changing project dynamics
• Leading the project team to successful outcomes
