We learned (might be experienced as well) that we may come across "Multiple Critical Paths" in our PM journey from cradle to grave. Well, what's the best way to bid adieu to multiple CPs?

@ Rami: Thanks for the query. Yes, project volume impacts plurality of CPs. Can we minimize this plurality to a single longest CP such that we can attack it productively? As Ahmed suggested, reshuffling dependencies is one way. Like wise, I wish to learn vital few ways or one best way. Hope I'm clear now. Thanks.

Now got your point Ramesh - I guess the gentlemen's feedback was good enough. It is always better to try to reshuffle and check the dependencies (If they were discretionary) and end up with one CP and take the risk into consideration. Two CP's are bearable but more than that, the risk will be very high.
