SSS #003: Checklists and charity with Martin DOWSETT
Manage episode 319836645 series 2822167
In this interview, Martin Dowsett tells us how he uses checklists to make sure small but important things don't get forgotten.
He also tells us how he brought a project that was over budget back on track, and how he created and used a set of guiding principles to keep it there.
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
