Edward Merrow, founder and CEO of Independent Project Analysis (IPA), will deliver the opening keynote address at the Project Management Institute Southern Alberta Chapter (PMI-SAC) Professional Development Conference in Calgary, Canada, on November 21, 2011.

 

As a noted megaprojects expert, Merrow’s presentation will highlight some of the research findings detailed in his new book, Industrial Megaprojects: Concepts, Strategies, and Practices for Success (John Wiley and Sons). Industrial Megaprojects provides a clear, nontechnical understanding of why these major projects get into trouble and how your company can prevent hazardous and costly errors when undertaking such large technical and management challenges.

 

The PMI-SAC Professional Development Conference will take place November 21 and 22, 2011, at the Telus Convention Centre in Calgary, Alberta. Visit the PMI-SAC conference website for more information. Twitter users can join in and follow the conference conversations and observations at #pmisacpdc.
