Managing Troubled Projects

No project is without its challenges, and managing troubled projects requires quick thinking and adaptability. On the Insurance Project, we faced delays due to scope creep and lack of clarity around some technical requirements. Re-engaging stakeholders, clarifying the scope, and adjusting the timeline helped get the project back on track.
The key learning here was the importance of open communication and setting clear expectations early on. By addressing the issues head-on and managing stakeholder relationships effectively, we were able to salvage the project and complete it successfully.

Key Learning: When managing troubled projects, it’s critical to identify the root causes quickly, reset expectations, and communicate transparently to steer the project back on course.
