In today’s fast-paced and distributed team environment, the ability to recover challenged projects is crucial. Projects often encounter scope creep, leading to missed deliverables and cost overruns. Project managers and organizations must be adept at employing techniques to address these challenges, mitigate financial impacts, and ensure successful project outcomes.
