Case$-$Based Critical Thinking Questions

Case $3-1$

Chris has inherited the management of some highly disorganized projects from her predecessor. One of its hallmarks is that the projects included a lot of constraints that have proven unnecessary, and which have complicated the reporting on the projects and the accurate assessment of where things stand.
