"Environmental
influences have long been recognized to effect project planning
- now we are realizing these same influences are in effect in
project execution. This conference identified these effects and
provided tools and resources to take these effects into account
in my business. The management of projects under constant
environmental effect can be controlled and create better results
with the techniques taught at this conference"
Richard Sayers,
Director, Development Engineering, Gojo Industries |
