Projects are the basis for meeting objectives at work. In all industries, project management emphasizes control, processes and tools. What Matt Kohut, the co-author of  the new book, **The Smart Mission: NASA’s Lessons for Managing Knowledge, People, and Projects.** learned by interviewing the leadership at NASA, is how human skills and expertise have a bigger impact than technical tools when it comes to running successful projects. 

This session, moderated by Dan LeClair, thought leader in management education and CEO of the Global Business School Network (GBSN), will explore the impact of learning, collaboration, teaming, communication and company culture--drawing on lessons from the book. This session will dive into getting things done, learning together and the three key components: people, knowledge and projects.
