Presentation

Is your organization wasting time and resources on the wrong projects? Are you frustrated with project scope creep? If so, then you need to master the art and science of project selection and chartering. Discover how to create powerful project charters that will ensure approval and success. In this interactive webinar, you will learn how to identify and evaluate "pain points" within your organization's value stream. Then turn those "pain points" into compelling project charters using proven tools and techniques. Learn how to define the problem statement, craft specific project goals, and carefully scope your project to avoid scope creep. Includes free Excel-based tools and templates.
