How an Acceptable Level of Scope Creep Trains Clients to Become Better Project Stewards and Allows PMs to Deliver Greater Value

Scope creep is one of the top indicators of project failure.

As budgets shrink and capacity flees, it is important that Project Managers manage and maintain client expectations while allowing and forecasting a reasonable level of creep in an effort to satisfy and add greater value to the client and customers.

Participants will gain a framework for determining an allowable level of scope creep and assessing the impact on resources and interests.

Additionally, participants will learn how to chart a client engagement path that develops clients into better project stewards.
