Week 8. Status Report
The Survey Results Report for the NetHope – University of Waterloo MMSc Online Project Management Survey, was completed this week. Of the 16 Member Organizations responding, the following are some key observations:
• Project management skills overall showed as an area in need of improvement.
• Post project lessons learned reviews is an area for improvement (key for corporate knowledge and highlighting areas in need of improvement).
• While Agile PM methodologies are not used much today, there appears to be a good opportunity to benefit from an Agile (light) approach.
In addition, of the 16 Member Organizations responding to the survey, 11 provided contacts for follow up interviews, of which 7 were completed this week. For time reasons, further interviews are unlikely, though the information we have received has been very good. The weekend will focus on building a catalogue of current NHMO “best practices”, and starting an analysis compared against industry “best practices” within key focus areas.
