Episode 52 — Handle Project Drift: Change Control, Dependencies, and Delivery Evidence
Notas do episódio
This episode explains how to recognize and correct project drift before it derails outcomes, which is exam-relevant because leaders must manage scope, schedule, quality, and risk under changing conditions. You will learn how drift appears as silent scope creep, slipping dependencies, or reduced quality, and how change control turns ad hoc requests into structured decisions with impact analysis and approvals. We cover dependency tracking across teams and vendors, realistic replanning when milestones slip, and the role of delivery evidence such as testing results, configuration confirmations, and operational verification that proves work is done correctly. A scenario explores a critical dependency delay that forces tradeoffs, showing how to communicate early, reset expectations without blame, and preserve the most important outcomes. Troubleshooting considerations include weak status reporting, multiple “sources of truth,” and pressure to accept changes without adjusting time or resources, emphasizing how disciplined governance keeps delivery predictable and defensible.
