Craig Mercer's thoughts on the nature of variation and "crossing the streams" of Project Management with Benefits Realization Management, Organizational Change Management and Process Improvement (Lean Design).
Project management is one of the most misused and misunderstood “disciplines” (if I can call it that) that you will come across. Let’s face it…for all of the glory of the PMBoK and the umpteen million books and methodologies on project management….you’re still working with people…which makes being successful in project management more art than science.
Here at “Order out of Chaos” I will endeavour to share my observations (and dare I say insights?) into the art of project management, process improvement, the nature of variation and any other trendy term that I can scrape from the dirty floor of the internet. In the immortal words of John McClane in Die Hard….”Welcome to the party pal!”
