By that time, the project may be ready for the scrap heap. But if your projects and programs include multi-level learning, you’ll not only be fostering continuous improvements for the future, you’ll be well-equipped to reduce the risk of failure while projects are “in-flight” so you can deliver maximum value to your client organization. Facilitating Project Performance Improvement helps any organization: • Reduce time to market for new products, systems, processes and technologies • Improve customer and end-user satisfaction with project outcomes • Reduce risk of failure, wasted investment, and project runaway • Improve productivity, quality and teamwork • Continuously improve delivery both within and across projects. Organizations simply cannot afford to leave learning to chance on their mission-critical investments. Facilitating Project Performance Improvement provides a practical approach to structured learning and reflection that enables teams to innovate and improve, ensuring both immediate and long-term project success.
