Dr Christopher Worsley, CEO of CITI Group, launched the show with a seminar on the subject of ‘Controlling projects and portfolios – command and control’.

What does it mean to control a project? Monitoring and control are usually linked together, yet they demand different skills.

There are text books on monitoring – but on control – making things happen rather than watching it go on – there is very little for the practising project manager to turn to. In this session the differences between command and control, techniques and principles of control in projects and the impact of inappropriate controls are examined.

For the first time a model for assessing the effectiveness of a control input on a project is unveiled.

There was a lot of action at the CITI stand: our team ran live demonstrations of our revolutionary virtual learning experience, which forms part of our advanced project management development programmes.
