Jay..et al.... After working 21 plus years in Project Management and encountering multiple processes, personalities, ideas, and directions I've come to the ...
The bottom line is that there are many bottom lines, one for each individual whose compensation is based on a different measurement. Consequently, there is no...
Hi, Tony "But this is very much a leading indicator." ;-) Regards, Larry Leach, PMP www.advanced-projects.com Tel: 208-345-1136 [Non-text portions of this...
Hi, Rob At this point, I think we are on separate pages. I am seeking to raise the group's awareness of the science of behaviorism, and hopefully of the TOC...
"Ultimately, it's our educational system that $uck$ big time" Well, actually there is more - remember complexity? There is a whole brainwashing system in place...
Larry I can't speak for Rob, but I am not comfortable with Behaviourism. I agree that Behaviourism has an empirical basis, but that, in and of itself is no...
Hi, Justin You articulate the cognitive side of the grand battle well. I saw a great quote by Walt Whitman on the TV last night that I wished I had captured,...
Larry - It's clear from a number of posts (also somewhat ironic) that I haven't yet been able to communicate what I'm talking about. I certainly have no ...
Larry, Probably, few of us doubt the power of behaviorism. Without a doubt, behaviorism's methods will extinguish punished (unrewarded) behaviors, increase...
Hi, Rob I certainly agree that the implementation case I put forward either lacked key elements, or did not execute them effectively. If that was not the case,...
Hi, All This came in my email. It may interest you. I do not endorse it, as I have not seen it...just passing it along. It looks like you can review past...
Hi, Brian If you seek to convince me you are not current on the science of human behavior, you have succeeded. It is a way of scientifically explaining why...
Hi, I posted the below message last Nov (unfortunately coincided with TOC conference) but I am reposting as I have been unable to locate a really good case...
Mr. Kishira from Being Software presented a case study implementation at PMI congress. I can't find the file, but maybe someone else has a copy somewhere. If...
Hi, Wish you all a happy and prosperous new year. I never saw any discussion on Monte Carlo simulations of multi-project management on this forum. If we use...
Hi all, If I may, I'd like to propose a tool that actually does serve to reinforce key behaviors in the workplace. It seems like this list is fairly split over...
Prasad, For Monte Carlo simulations to be a useful management tool in the multi-project management domain, you'd need more than just a good model and the power...
I'm not so fond of the "leader board" though. I'm reminded (a little) of call centres where they give prizes for, say, selling the most insurance policies in...

This could be an interesting discussion for those involved in EVM. EVM is getting a lot of attention these days in the government world due to OMB mandates. ...
Hi Brian, I agree with you. As we all know, project schedules are not deterministic. Using simulations based on current progress of projects, we can update the...
Michael EVMS and CCPM is an interesting topic. In conjunction with Ken Francis of Edwards AFB, we have presented on this topic in several forums, including ...
Joe, Michael, _et al,_ As I recall EVM is also very big on defining Millstones for purposes of project review and progress payments to the organization...
Prasad, Belatedly, it occurs to me that a decent Monte Carlo model for project network behavior might be a good training aid for people learning CC/MPM (or...
Hi Brian, The summary of your post is: "A shabby Monte Carlo (MC) model with a crummy random generator and a single simulation run would be good enough for...
It does seem that EVM has been gathering a lot of steam recently. I've not done a comparison between EVM and TOC/CCPM, but on the surface, I would think that...
