Description
Inspiration for innovation is everywhere we look; however to go from idea to successful execution and development, risks need to be mitigated along the project’s lifecycle. With project complexity increasing due to advances in engineering technology and generational differences among team mates, leading-edge projects require teams to be well trained in the science of Project Management. This presentation focuses on the importance of Risk Management while highlighting the new Project Management Institute talent triangle, the differences from the 5th edition to the new and upcoming 6th edition of the PMBOK, and the communication differences between generations. This is designed for project teams, leaders, and managers who want to gain a better understanding into the fundamentals of effective Risk Management practices in relation to the innovation process.
