SSS #023: Costly (non) Communication with Elsie Rogers Professional PMOCast

    • Business

In this interview, Elsie Rogers tells us how a simple communication oversight nearly turned into a cost overrun, and reminds us of the importance of informal corridor conversations.

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
