02/18/08 Tip of the Week: Project Portfolio Management: Tip 5 - Forgive human errors, but not process errors.
February 18, 2008 @ Project Management Tips of the Week from Mark Perry
Don’t assume things will automatically play or can run on auto-pilot. Business dynamics and changing conditions prevail and require portfolio agility, the ability to stay current with your investment status and respond to changes. Also prevalent can be legacy attitudes, behaviors, and quiet dissension from those that fared well under the old system. Expect human errors and execution difficulties. In fact, embrace them, as they can lead to an understanding and resolution of those things in the process that led to the problem in the first place.
