Hey all. I'm a mgmt consultant, got sick of clients only doing half of what is needed and me having to explain to the C-level about the impact and loss of not doing the final half. To correct that, I decided to take a few months off between clients and write both a methodology and a full example of artifacts populated with data from a fictitious project, but using a real life example of something recently invented that healthcare companies will be doing in the next several years. (Details once I publish it, that's just the teaser :-) )
This is far more than just a framework, methodology, or case study. It's all of those put together, 80% of what a company needs to succeed (no one thing is ever 100%), with a real life set of information to follow.
I know the PM types would "get" it, but what would make more sense to the C-level? "Project in a box"? "Project Pathway"? Something else?
Thx for any feedback. This thing has taken me weeks to write, I think i'm going batty :-) Saving Changes...
Like Kiron suggestion "Project in practice" what about "C-Level Projects" for added food for thinking. Saving Changes...

Based on the use case you provided I recommend you move forward with "Project in a box". It more clearly describes a model that has clear boundaries, has a clear start /end date and scope. "Project Pathways", would be excellent to use for a transformation type project where the client would be more open to a journey. Good-luck! Saving Changes...
and the IP gods have spoke hehe :-) Saving Changes...

I just spent 3 hours on the USPTO website this weekend as I'm reviewing new logo options for my company. Not worried about "Project in a box" IP, no chance does that get a trademark, it's like claiming methodology is unique. Plus they spell it programme, that's totally different! :-)
But then again, no desire to confuse people. Projects In Practice or Pathways it is. Now I just need to finish writing it, so it's something more than half-baked vaporware... Saving Changes...
