PONENCIA:
What to do when your Project becomes a Crisis (Case Study)

There are more similarities between Crisis Management and Project Management than meets the eye. But what happens when your crisis becomes a project – or worse, when your project becomes a crisis? As a crisis advisor being involved in numerous urgent or smouldering crisis situations, Robbert Meulemeester has experienced that bad management can make a crisis worse than it actually is. Using a recent case he and his colleagues worked on, Robbert will explain what Project Managers and Crisis Managers should learn from each other.
