Treating the Missing-Our-Milestones Syndrome: Worldwide Webinar with PMI

After the launch of  “Be Fast Or Be Gone” I was fortunate enough to receive a request from the Project Management Institute (PMI) to conduct a worldwide webinar on Critical Chain. At this event I will talk about my experience implementing Critical Chain in the life science industry. We will take a look at some of the root causes for the Missing-Our-Milestones syndrome. Then, we will talk about how the Critical Chain methodology helps to deliver projects on-time based on real life examples. A number of Fortune 500 R&D organizations have been able to reduce project durations while meeting their milestone commitments. We will talk about the do’s and don’ts of implementing a consistent project management methodology across a company. This webinar is for project management practitioners as well as executives.
