Faltering Projects: Getting Them Back on Track

[presentation]
by
Johanna Rothman, Rothman Consulting Group, Inc.
Summary: 

Are you concerned that your project is in trouble? Perhaps the team has missed some deadlines. No one can show a demo. The testers are finding more defects that anyone expected. And, because you are starting to have delays, the stakeholders want more features in this release. You know that things are not hunky-dory with your project. Johanna Rothman first discusses the measurements you can take to evaluate progress-cumulative flow, fault feedback ratio, and defect trends. Next, she describes approaches she's used to rescue projects-time-boxing, working by feature, using demos to demonstrate progress, and managing scope changes that can slow down your project. You'll learn the options you have for getting the project back on track and keeping it there through this release and into the future. And because, ultimately, some projects can't be saved, Johanna will help you to recognize the losers and discuss ways to gracefully cut your losses.
