Delivery, recovery and the project that failed
Two questions here are nearly guaranteed — a project that ran behind and what you concretely did, and a project that failed. The first is scored on the specificity of your recovery moves; the second is scored on whether you can name your own contribution to the failure without either flinching or performing contrition.
What you'll be able to do
- Answer "the project is going to miss its date" with the four levers that actually exist
- Tell a project-failure story that keeps agency without collapsing into blame
- Handle change management — a scope or priority shift landing mid-flight
- Give a delivery update at the right altitude for the audience

Two questions here are nearly guaranteed — a project that ran behind and what you concretely did, and a project that failed. The first is scored on the specificity of your recovery moves; the second is scored on whether you can name your own contribution to the failure without either flinching or performing contrition. This walkthrough runs about 25 minutes, with runnable code you can edit and re-run as you read.
