What is the significance of
“Communication Practices”
to the success of Project Management?

This is a great question to ask when considering why so many projects fail.

Could Communications be the silver bullet to project success after all?

“Project Management Communications Tools – A guide to Communicating effectively! “ by 20-year subject matter expert Bill Dow uncovers a new approach to these questions.

Through use of a Communications Requirement Matrix, a Social Media to Lifecycle Process Mapping and a discussion about the “what, when and why” of what project information may be appropriate for social media, you will acquire a new way to approach your next project.

In addition to planning and being proactive with the structure of your next project you will discover these activities as they relate to both Waterfall and Agile projects.

You are sure to find something valuable in this webinar!

There are varying degrees of uncertainty associated with everything we do.

Alarm clocks are generally more predictable than our drive to work while that drive is often more predictable than say software development.

Individually the uncertainty can be managed but the picture becomes a lot more complex when multiple tasks are occurring at the same time.

What does trying to manage multiple tasks do to your chance of success?

This presentation will look at how some simple simulations can assess the impact of uncertainty and produce far more realistic forecasts for the future. This reduces management effort, saves money and leads to happier clients.
