Project disasters and how to survive them

"Even when procedures and methods are followed to the letter, things can still go wrong and lead to disastrous outcomes. Project Disasters and How to Survive Them examines what causes projects to fail and the lessons that can be learned from these failures in order to help avoid future disasters.". "Using a wide variety of real-world examples such as the Apollo 13 moon mission, Coca-Cola's Dasani water and the Millennium Dome, the book analyzes what those involved in the projects did when things started to go wrong, and how effective - or otherwise - their actions were in improving the final outcome. The tone of the book is positive throughout - the focus is on the identification of root causes and the use of appropriate diagnostic tools and remedial skills and practices to produce the best possible outcome. Due consideration is also given to the use of preventative measures such as risk management to nip problems in the bud before they get out of control."--BOOK JACKET.
