The Time Dimension in Project Management! Major Panel discussion announced for 22nd IPMA World Congress in Rome
The project management team for the 22nd IPMA World Congress on Project Management - ROMA 2008 Project Management to Run - has announced several major panel discussions for the November World Congress. The IPMA 22nd World Congress on Project Management will be held in Rome, Italy during 9-11 November 2008. For information, visit www.ipmaroma2008.it.
According to the latest congress announcement, a Panel discussion on the Time Dimension of Project Management will be held in Rome.
Project Management has always been the way to carry out projects when the time available is limited. But today time is more important than ever. Running hard against time is now necessary for everybody and project management must respond to this new need. We need to halve the time it takes from the first idea to project start and halve the time from start to project completion and the delivering of its benefits.
The panel will discuss the instruments needed to control and reduce the time required for project design and implementation, and to link time to the uncertainty of projects and to project risk management. Where time is essential, risks will increase and they have to be managed.
The Panel will be moderated by Adesh Jain (pictured), Chair of the IPMA Council of Delegates. Panel participants have not yet been announced. Congress participants who are involved with or interested in advanced time management, project scheduling and other related issues will want to attend this discussion.
The 22nd IPMA World Congress and Exhibition will be held at the Palazzo dei Congressi near the heart of downtown Rome, during 9-11 November 2008. The "ROMA 2008 - Project Management to Run” World Congress will include keynote speeches, 12 streams of presentations over three days with discussions and presentations on various programme and project management topics, and an international exhibition of products and services. Over 1,000 participants from the 45+ countries represented by IPMA membership are expected to attend, making it one of the largest project management events in the world this year.
