“The shift in focus from cost to value transforms projects, often doubles the business results and allows the organization to invest less whilst reaping far more in returns.” --- Jed Simms
This 59 minute webinar was presented to Teknologisk Institut, Aarhus, Denmark, by Alexandra Chapman in Oct 2016:
Alexandra Chapman: "In this webinar, I give you a practical overview of the learnable and teachable tools that TOP is made up of. I hope you enjoy the session and invite you to link to me on LinkedIn if you have further questions".
We cover:
- the three decades of development in TOP - Totally Optimized Projects,
- the power and simplicity of the Value Equation™ in defining what you desire to achieve with a project and then how to achieve it
- the "learn and teach" philosophy which underpins all TOP tools, techniques and processes.
Along the way, I illustrate the webinar with case studies and examples gained over the two lifetimes of work (mine and Jed Simms) and my work over 33 years in technology and business strategy, helping executives and project people learn the thinking models and techniques which make it easy for them to succeed with strategy and project execution.
