FORUM INFORMATION
Presentation Abstract: Project Failures
and Successes
By: Don Gottwald

Forum Presentation Abstract
The purpose of this presentation is to examine
major project successes and failures from the
perspective of what went right and what went wrong
and why we haven't been able to consistently apply
lessons learned to improve the percentage of projects
that are successful in terms of the triple constraint.
The discussion will center on what factors might
have been missed in planning, execution, and monitoring
and control of these projects. Additionally, the
objective will be to develop some potential research
questions that could provide lead to better approaches
for future project success. The intent is to develop
a pool of potential research topics to be made
available to Ph.D. students and researchers in
Project Management to pursue in completing their
dissertation and for potential publication in
Project Management Journals.
