PREMIUM presentation
by Mark Mullaly, Ph.D., PMP

What Project Management Can Learn From the Arts

by Mark Mullaly, Ph.D., PMP

Art works because of structure, process and honesty. If we want our projects to truly deliver results that we care about, we should take lessons from the world of the arts and apply them to our own projects and organizations.

Capturing Lessons Learned That Actually Get Used

by Lonnie Pacelli
