Topic 13 Tips For Speeding Up Your Project

Is your project plodding along? Would you like to try something—anything—to make your project speed up?

Every organization has a "sweet spot," a period of time in which they know how to start projects and how to end them. Some organizations take three months to start a project. Some take three months to end a project. Some organizations take even longer on both ends. And let’s not even start discussing the two-steps-forward-three-steps-backwards that seems to happen on some projects.

In this presentation, Johanna will discuss some approaches to starting projects faster, finishing them faster—and even more important—making real progress during a project.
