O problema das médias no gerenciamento de projetos
Resumo:
As novas tecnologias e práticas gerenciais oferecem uma maneira melhor de entender e controlar os riscos de um projeto. A simulação computacional interativa proporciona gráficos intuitivos sobre riscos que podem ser utilizados na detecção e controle de riscos ocultos, mesmo por parte de quem não seja um especialista em estatística. A função DIST (Distribution String) estabelece um padrão necessário para a comunicação de entrada/saída das incertezas em projetos, permitindo aos especialistas da organização compartilharem seus conhecimentos sobre as incertezas em termos de prazos, custos e demais fatores de forma inequívoca com os demais gerentes de vários níveis.
