We are delighted to publish our Spring 2009 bulletin which provides news and information on the latest topics affecting project management today.
Stop that project!: In an environment of retrenchment we are beginning to see much tighter controls on the approval of major spend projects. However, stopping those ‘waned’ projects which are addressing yesterday’s problems may be even more important than not starting those projects designed to address today’s. But which ones to stop and how do we ensure that they really are terminated? This article is an extract from CITI’s White Paper on stopping projects.
Find a clear approach: Projects need clarity of vision and rapid adaptive decision-making. Read the centre spread for a story on how a Local Government service delivery project required a clear route forward to succeed.
Your passport to greater success: Also in the centre spread, read about CITI’s Centre of Excellence (CofEe) Club plans for 2009 and upcoming events and exhibitions.
Take your learning beyond method: CITI’s open courses offer a range of development for the project and programme community, including the PPSO team. Our Spring courses featured in this issue offer courses for all members of the team and bookings via our website receive a 10% discount!
