In 1911, Roald Amundsen reached the South Pole. 35 days later, Robert Scott followed. Amundsen’s party returned to base but Scott’s party perished.
In this webinar, Rick Brenner uses the history of this event to explore important lessons about managing risk.
This style of webinar showing Project Management principles in “Real World” situations help reinforce the practical nature of project management practices. I attended a workshop at the PMI Northern Alberta Chapter conference that used the Sinking of the Titanic to illustrate IT PM issues. Tying these practices from the PMBOK to practical situations helps me explain the value of Project Management to Management and other stakeholders. EdmontonPM
