Did you know that NASA failed a Mars mission because of the confusion with the metric system? This simple mistake cost NASA $125 million dollars. How was it even possible?
All NASA’s projects are supposed to be done perfectly by teams of qualified professionals, matured processes, utilising the most elaborate tools. These projects are expected to succeed. But in fact, 70% of their projects fail in some way. This sparks the question, why do they fail?
There are many reasons that cause project failure, and every failed project will have its own set of issues. Sometimes, it is a single event that triggers a failure, but more often than not, it is a complex, intertwined set of problems.
Join us and be a part of this month TRG Talk - Project Management discussion on "Why do projects fail?” to learn the reasoning behind failed projects and how to address common problems before it's too late.
This event is limited to the first 20 people and FREE entrance, so hurry up and grab your seat!
