Project Management . . . .
"If
this was Easy, Someone Else Would Be Doing It!"
™
Project Management is not simple, it
is not easy and it is not for the faint of heart. You may be able to read the
book, pass the exam and be designated a project manager. However, without the
scars, the grey hairs and that all important experience, you may be a project
manager in name only. Projects happen in the real world; things go wrong;
deliveries are late; people leave; scope changes; risks become more important;
and budgets get slashed. Project Managers take the responsibilities for their
projects through these challenges. Identifying facets of a project manager’s
personality is the overwhelming confidence they have towards project, the team
and the sponsors while at the same time a demonstrated paranoia that they know
that everything will go wrong. The good ones recognize this split personality
and allow their confident personality side to develop and provide contingency
plans or actions.
Not only does
MBF Consulting Services Inc. run their projects with this open philosophy,
they also provide a selection
of training course, presentations and keynote speeches based on the fact that
Project Management is not easy. The presentations are full of reality, not just
the theory. They are open about the challenges and provides a practical way to
address and deliver. The repertoire includes Practical Project Management
for the Non-Project Manager and the
Top Ten Reasons why Project Management is Not Easy. The approach is to
follow standards set through various the guides and best practices, but will
actually deliver based on the client needs, not just the defined process. This
unconventional approach has worked very well for MBF
Consulting Services Inc. This was identified as a niche requirement for
certain targeted organizations, such as “start-up”
companies, where it is recognized that agility and speed are key drivers. And
while this may be true for the startups, the larger and more established organizations have also
embraced the approach and extended contracts with MBF
Consulting Services Inc.
