SSS #021: Too much, too soon with Richard Humphrey Professional PMOCast
-
- Business
In this interview, Richard Humphrey tells us how what he thought was a sensible and pragmatic suggestion was summarily dismissed. He reminds us to pay attention to stakeholders' environment, and reminds us that incremental change is often better received and longer lasting than step change.
This interview is part of Pragmatic PMO’s “Scary Scars Shared” series, in which Ken BurrelI asks Real Project Managers to share in around ten minutes the lessons they have learned from managing projects, so that the whole project management community can learn from their experiences.
You can find the entire series at http://bit.ly/ScaryScars (video) and http://bit.ly/PragmaticPMOCast (audio, or search for “PragmaticPMOCast” wherever you get your podcasts)
Sharing short, sharp, project lessons interviews like this is just one of the pragmatic pointers recommended in Ken's book “Learning lessons from Projects: How it works, why it goes wrong, and how it you can do it better”, available from http://bit.ly/KensLLBook
