Session

From the Pit Lane to Project Lane: what businesses can learn from sport

In a world of constant change and uncertainty, organisations and teams often struggle to deliver on promises based on upfront estimates and plans.
Sports like Formula One and Team Table Tennis leverage historical and real-time data to shape a race strategy or to find the best team formation.

In this session, we will discover how sports can bridge the gap between upfront estimates and planning and no estimates. We will discover how organisations and teams can use sport-inspired approaches, like real-time projections, to manage the work to do, keep customers informed, and manage up the expectations on the plans, estimates and status reports.
