Preparing for the workshop
All you need is you and your experiences for this workshop! Before the day you might like to reflect on the last three projects you have been involved with:
- What kind of projects do you mainly deal with? What and who defines success?
- Who did you engage with as your stakeholders? Could there and should there have been other groups?
