Attendees will have a hands-on approach to project management topics from the analysis of business case to (scope, schedule, cost, risk, quality, resource, communication) planning to leading and managing the deliveries. Collaborative teamwork exercises in a case study help expand the scope through a Lean, nimble, and adaptive approach by empowered cross-functional teams.

In today's projects, generative AI can help teams refine project needs into a clear scope, milestones, and PBIs, enabling them to quickly draft roadmaps and release plans. Depending on attendees' needs, we will use Gen. AI for compression options and to assist in defining KPIs and risk registers/responses, progress summaries/reports, and other activities, enabling teams to communicate outcomes and lessons learned more efficiently throughout the life cycle.

Presentation Takeaways:

  • Define and plan the project scope and deliverables with clear traceability to requirements.
  • Define and plan a delivery release plan using a phased-gate Work Breakdown Structure.
  • Develop project schedules (WBS, critical path, and critical chain) processes.
  • Apply techniques for identifying and quantifying project risks, threats, and opportunities.
  • Apply detailed project cost analysis and future value cash flow projections.
  • Monitor and control projects using the Earned Schedule management process.
  • Applicable use of Ge. AI for project needs
