Why Good ITIL Implementations Go Bad Presented by Mike Hoevenaars, ITIL Consultant.

Based upon white paper "Why good Projects go Bad" by Michael Addario

and Lloyd Weber, Noveld Business Systems.

Key Learnings Attendees Will Be Walking Away With Today:

1. Understanding of the Rules of Engagement, which dominates the

dynamics of a Project?

2. Understanding of Organizational layers, motivational drivers and

communication gaps, which makes up the dynamics of an organization

3. What Problem could result as these two forces interact?
