Summary
Description
This article will discuss the value of the WBS and how to prepare, facilitate and document the information from the session. Included throughout are some best practices, tips and tricks to help you refine your approach.
Learning how to facilitate a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) session is one of the most important things you can do as a project manager. Time and time again projects are launched, budgeted and schedule assigned without first understanding all of the project “bits and pieces” and as a result, projects are less than successful or perhaps even worse.
