One of the main reasons that most initiatives fail is that key requirements were missed at the start when designing a solution and setting budget and schedule expectations.  Missed requirements tend to be revealed near the end of the project when there is the greatest risk of costly rework and a strong likelihood of missed deadlines and exceeded budgets.  To counter this problem, experts have created a number of practices focused on exploring stakeholder requirements to reveal these hidden aspects early on to avoid surprises late in the project.

Over the course of this 60-minute webinar, expert Ellie Braham will explore "discovery sessions" -- a workshop format focused on understanding requirements and flushing out hidden details that may make the difference between project success or failure.  Participants will learn about workshop structure, governance, and facilitation techniques that will engage stakeholders to share many previously-unspoken details and how they can be documented in an efficient and effective way.  This workshop is ideal for project managers, business analysts, consultants, or anyone who may find themselves leading a group who are trying to document their needs.
