Presentation Synopsis
Maintaining project
sanity in an
environment of
ever-changing
requirements is one
of the main
challenges of a
successful
completion of a
software development
initiative. While
being tough enough
to manage the
changes while
face-to-face with
the end-users,
distributed projects
face the additional
challenge of
maintaining the
users happy over
long-distance
relationships.
This session will
explore several
critical elements
that are required
for an IT project to
achieve success
while coping with
multiple locations,
diverse mentalities
and various time
zones.
