Create A Robust Project Plan

Building a robust project plan is key to any successful project. While it’s not possible for it to be perfect, the goal is to bring to life the project objectives by nailing down the execution.

To clarify, while the schedule becomes the heartbeat of the proj...

    Recently worked on a project where the Product Owner was also the scrum master, he was extremely overbearing and would make the developers Demo the work they’d done from previous 2-4 days during daily stand up whilst a sprint is ongoing. This made our stand ups last for 30 minutes daily, then he would drag us right straight into and hour and a half sprint planning immediately after stand up. He is the global head of a business unit in a large corporation … 😅 What do you think?

    • @ProjectMgmtMadeSimple
      @ProjectMgmtMadeSimple 3 месяца назад

      Hey there, to clarify the Google program is not explicitly a CAPM prep course, it just gives you the hours to qualify to take the CAPM. I suggest looking at the CAPM Exam Content outline: www.pmi.org/-/media/pmi/documents/public/pdf/certifications/capm20ecofinal.pdf for more information on what you’ll need to know for the exam.

      Hi, I do not. But what I will say about project management is that the project lifecycle and concepts apply to any industry. The important part is to understand if what you’re working on meets the definition of a project and if it does, then the project lifecycle is applicable. What will be different will be are the outcomes for that particular project type.
