My recommendation is that the content in the link given above should be read several times. This will put the assignment into a better perspective.
The link was helpful in that it did shed some insight on what the assignment was about.
It is important to note that "Lauren" was in the middle of a merger between two companies and the dilemma of providing a reccommendation to the new CEO as to how she would solve the problem of the current projects that were 40% over the budget. Another aspect of the assignment was how the success would be measured.
There were suggestions provided to the student to consider.
The student was encouraged to use the references given as there are may aspects of the program management area that could have been used in order to answer the question in the assignment. Since there were so many possibilities, it was important to narrow down the most important aspects of the assisgnment.
The references given had other links to other parts of project maangement and the student can click on those for further insight.
