Event Details
Mr. Rick Morris, PMP, ITIL will be speaking about Turning Around a Failing Project

One of the most sought after topics for project managers is how to deal with failing projects or even how to turn them around.
 

When industry figures show a variation of 60-82% of projects failing, it is easy to see why so many seek this information.


In typical Rick Morris style, this session will not be full of theories or textbook options. Instead, it will be an introspective look into actual
experiences and a telling of true lessons learned.

Rick made a name for himself at Fortune 100 companies for his ability to quickly analyze,
understand, and put plans in motion to turn around failing projects. Some of the stories will include:

 Dealing with difficult Sponsors

 Dealing with an unresponsive and unsupportive direct manager

 Turning around software development as well as IT Services projects

 Dealing with ethical/moral issues

Rick will also discuss some of his personal failures in trying to bring a project back to life. As in every situation, there are times when a project will simply fail. Rick will discuss some of the difficult lessons that he learned in some of the most trying times of his career.
