PMI-LA Events

Session Description:

Project management is inherently challenging, and when projects go off course, it rarely stems from a flawed 1,000-line project plan or the basic mechanics of a Kanban board. Instead, initiatives falter due to the accumulation of unmanaged risks, forgotten action items, cascading issues, and delayed decision-making. To achieve true project resilience, teams must dramatically reduce their decision latency—the time it takes to identify a threat or opportunity, assess it, make a choice, and take decisive action.

Join Kim Essendrup, PMP, for an insightful webinar that shifts the focus from static planning to dynamic project execution. This session introduces the foundational principles of the RAID (Risks, Actions, Issues, and Decisions) approach, demonstrating how it serves as an operational "run process" to keep your primary project plans on track, course-correct in real-time, and establish a robust repository for continuous organizational learning.

Learning Objectives:

By attending this webinar, participants will learn how to:

• Understand the Core Framework: Understand what a RAID log is, how it functions as an operational and knowledge management tool, and how it differentiates from standard project activities to keep schedules focused on value delivery.
• Drive Project Wins: Learn practical methodologies to deploy a RAID log across multiple project scenarios to proactively manage uncertainty, manage tactical communication, and ensure decisions "stick."
• Reduce Decision Latency: Gain strategies to rapidly identify and respond to both threats and opportunities, minimizing the latency that stands as a primary cause of project failure.
