Meeting Tools to Get Started - 6 Pre-mortem

What can go wrong will go wrong ... unless you identify ways to troubleshoot project roadblocks and failures before they happen.

It can be done in solo or in groups of 2-10, or 10+ with a time spent of 30 to 60 minutes.

Often in projects, the learning happens too late in the process and nothing can be done to impact the project outcomes. The Pre-Mortem tool enables team members to harness the collective experience and wisdom of the team, at a time when it’s most useful – before the project even starts.
