July Dinner Meeting

 

July Dinner Meeting Speaker - Tom SekWhy Project Leaders Fail

Presenter:  Tom Sek

Project failure is a familiar topic to all of us. 

We've all seen it; most of us have experienced it first hand. It doesn't take too long for a new project manager to find out why projects fail. The number one cause of project failure is, of course, failure to clearly define the project's objectives. Scope, statement of work, work breakdown structure; these are essential to project success. 

But, is it perhaps that the subject is so close and personal? We don't hear much about what causes project leaders to fail.  In this presentation Tom Sek will share with us the results of a survey of IT personnel asked to identify the characteristic failures of the worst manager they ever worked for.
