Synopsis:
Top 10 Obstacles to Project Success
Top 10 Obstacles to Project Success is based on a global survey run by MuTo Performance Corp. every year. During the presentation, Lou will discuss the Top 10 Obstacles based on the survey data. The findings are useful to Project Managers, Program Managers, and Senior I.T. Leadership who wish to understand the nature of the most common project obstacles.
The audience's experiences are often the foundation of discussion around each of the obstacles.
Overall, the presentation is humorous (in a Dilbert sort of way), yet educational and enlightening. Many of the obstacles seem obvious, until we uncover what root causes lie beneath them. Audience members walk away with plenty of thought provoking ideas for solutions to their existing obstacles, and new perspectives on how to tackle new ones.
