There are many reasons to overhaul your project management system in support of security acquisitions.
If you can’t prioritize the projects you already have, and make good decisions on selecting new ones, your organization will be in serious trouble. Let me explain how to transform your project management “three ring circus” into a sane, smart, successful system.
If you work in a project-based environment, you probably feel like one of those juggling clowns at the circus: trying to keep your ball, your baton, and your flaming torch in the air at the same time, all while maneuvering your unicycle around the ring. Focus too much on one object and you risk dropping one of the others -- or even taking a tumble. Project management can be a lot like this. Neglect to give one project the attention or funding it needs and the consequences of doing so can be much more serious than a dropped ball, especially when your higher-ups find out money has been wasted on an unimportant or failed project.
Great news: It’s time to send out the clowns. Organizations don’t have to manage their projects in such a circus-like manner. And, in fact, following solid advice can save valuable time and money and result in consistent success for your company.
