E-mail Print PDF

Todd had a great conversation hosted by Jon Hyde and Bernardo Tirado on #PMTV between Steve Carter, Luis Seabra Coelho on Trouble Projects where we answer the questions:

  • How do you know when your project is in trouble? What have been you’re a-ha moments?
  • Having managed many PMOs, what mechanisms have you used to avoid failure?
  • What is your approach in bringing projects back from red?

(Obviously, I need more light in my office for these 4:00AM Google+ Hangouts.)

PMI's Project Management Journal

"On the surface, these four steps appear to be basic ones to follow. What sets this book apart from others is the author’s experience in serving as a recovery manager for problem projects and the lessons he has learned in doing so. The chapters present short but meaningful case studies; many based on personal experience, illustrated with tables and figures and with summary "takeaways."...

PM Podcast Episode 205: Rescue The Problem Project

E-mail Print PDF

PM Podcast This week's episode of The Project Management Podcast:

When project budgets are dwindling, deadlines passing, and tempers flaring, then the usual response is to browbeat the project team and point fingers of blame - usually toward the project manager. That’s not really all that helpful. For these situations, what is needed is an objective process for accurately assessing what is wrong and a clear plan of action for fixing the problem.

Enter Todd Williams, PMP who wrote the book Rescue the Problem Project: A Complete Guide to Identifying, Preventing, and Recovering from Project Failure. Todd and I sat down at the PMI Global Congress last year and in this interview we discuss approaches to project rescue.

PMChat Interview: Project Recovery Pre-Game Show

E-mail Print PDF

PMChat LogoPMChat hosts Rob Prinzo and Robert Kelly ask Todd Williams the following questions on Project Recovery:

  • While some projects do have unforeseen issues, most projects have indicators that they are headed down the wrong path. Can you share some insight into what a PM should be watching for to spot trouble and head it off?
  • Let's say our readers haven't read either Rob Prinzo's book or yours Todd and they find themselves leading a project gone astray. What are the key actions a PM must do to stop the bleeding and get this thing back on track?
  • In your guest blog, you speak about a learning culture, with regards to project success. Can you explain that and provide some guidance to our listeners that may be individual contributors...what can they do if they don't have PMO or Enterprise influence?

Sound interesting? Of course it does! Check out the answers in this fast 15-minute interview.
