Project teams have become the primary vehicle through which organizations turn strategy into reality.

In this informative and entertaining presentation, Doug DeCarlo and his African drum will present proven tools and tips for leading and succeeding on extreme projects. Doug is a paradigm shifter and an internationally known speaker, consultant, workshop leader and coach. He is the author of the landmark book, eXtreme Project Management: Using Leadership, Principles and Tools to Deliver Value in the Face of Volatility.
