Necessity is the Mother of Invention.  But research shows us that creativity emerges from time to think, backing off, having some slack in the system.

In 1999 Coleman was on the ropes. The business had been sold and then sold again. Everyone who could leave had left.

Imagine that you return to take over as President to see what you can do to salvage the situation …and then Walmart calls asking to see the plan. No plans exist. No one is home to make a plan.

• What are the rules when all of the rules are broken?
• How to be strategic when survival is the only strategy that makes sense?
• How to be customer centered when the customer is out of patience?

Innovation doesn’t have to take the usual amount of time when you have an unusual amount of focus.

In this session with Jennifer Arnold,  Kimberly Johnson (LinkedIn profile), & Christopher Miller (LinkedIn profile) ,we will see what we can learn from the extraordinary Coleman case study with examples from other burning platform cases (Hershey’s Dessert Bar, Johnson Controls Automotive and DuPont-Merck that we can apply to everyday business processes).

Sequencing activities is a critical process within the Schedule Management knowledge area. It is a key component to building in logic – determining the path by which a schedule flows.

When we think of predecessors and successors, we often think about these dependencies in standalone projects.

• But what if we need to create links between multiple projects?
• How is that accomplished?

This webinar addresses what a master project schedule is, how to use a master project schedule to link tasks across multiple projects, and the importance of using milestone tasks to accomplish linking.

Presenter: Mike Agnello (LinkedIn profile) is a senior project manager at Edwards Performance Solutions, with expertise in Microsoft Project and Project Server. Previously, Mike has developed Project training courses, custom schedule management and reporting systems and Project Server implementations for commercial and federal clients in the Baltimore/Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
