The two most common reasons for project failure in organizations are lack of senior management support and poor or ever changing requirements.

Why do you think this is?

Too often organizations jump right into delivering on a project without the appropriate level of thought around the actual business need or the problem the project is going to solve.

If you’ve been a project manager for a while, you also understand that projects cause change in an organization and many times we don’t truly think about what that change means to all the stakeholders.

This month, Diane Buckley Altwies, (LinkedIn profile) CEO of Core Performance Concepts will explore the value of a project charter and how to develop one that is simple and can be agreed upon by all stakeholders.

Putting together the charter is the easy part. The challenge comes in creating consensus on the project solution and deliverables.

Diane will give you the skills to create a meaningful charter. She invites anyone to submit their charters to charter@cpconcepts.net for review. #TheCharterCreep

No change comes without risk!

In any leadership of change, risk is present:

• Risk may prevent the promised benefits from being realised
• Risk may add unanticipated costs, delays or other problems
• Risk may prevent the change from being accepted by the wider organisation

In planning and carrying out any change initiative, risk needs to be assessed, analysed and well managed. As the leader / driver of the initiative, the project manager needs to ensure the change process is planned and executed with full awareness of the risk it faces.

In this presentation, Simon White (LinkedIn profile) will demonstrate a practical and transparent approach to risk assessment, analysis and management, that allows risk to be usefully described and incorporated in the change process to increase awareness and ensure achievable benefits, costs and timescales.

Simon’s presentation will use interactive real-world examples to help break down the “black-box” image of risk assessment and analysis, and help demystify the underlying concepts such as probability, impact, exposure, three-point estimate, and P90.

Simon builds on over 20 years’ experience of helping organisations to understand and manage risk, and his customers (especially the non-mathematicians within their teams) appreciate the transparency of his approach and use it to increase their chance of success.
