No project exists in a vacuum. It is always going to be subject to organizational culture, enterprise environment factors, and the company's risk appetite. And that's just some of the internal issues. The market landscape is a whole other layer. As a project manager, you must be aware of, and plan for, all manner of change. In this course, you'll learn best practices for change control, including adapting to internal and external changes, change requests and integrated change control, monitoring approved changes for effectiveness, and the Agile approach to change. You'll explore the relationship between project changes and risk, as well as how processes like relative prioritization, adaptive planning, and backlog refinement can help you avoid scope creep and keep your project on track even as the winds of change are blowing.
