MY COOKING PROJECT EXERCISE ÂŽ
Ricardo Vargas had the opportunity to learn very interesting dynamics that show the project management importance while studying in the Strategy and Innovation program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). During the classes, he developed a simple dynamic based on the elaboration of a quick dinner for guests to demonstrate the importance of establishing the appropriate strategies for managing the project and the inherent risks to every decision making and also to the manager risk profile.

PMCOASTER DYNAMIC ÂŽ
It is a dynamics developed to simulate the real projects environment. Divided into teams, the participants will plan and execute the construction of a functional high speed roller coaster prototype for a theme park. Students will define the work, evaluate the project feasible budget and time in order to execute it. They will do so concerning the time and costs constraints. Then, students will execute and monitor the project to demonstrate the effectiveness of the plan in adverse conditions. The approximate duration of the dynamics is 2 hours and its main objective is to show the interrelationship between the scope required, deadlines and available budget. In addition, the aspects related to the teamwork quality are directly addressed. Š Macrosolutions SA. All rights reserved.
