As part of pm.CinemaHall, we analyzed the film “Ocean’s Eleven” through the lens of project management. It almost seemed like the film’s script was written by an experienced project manager. This is an understandable impression, because in 2000, screenwriter Ted Griffin found himself at the deep of a creative impasse and was considering a career shift. Coincidentally, that same year, PMI released an updated version of PMBOK (2000 Edition)…
