Episode description

Are you tired of hearing about big cleantech projects that never seem to come to fruition? Join us as we sit down with Bent Flyvbjerg, first BT Chair of major program management at Oxford, co-author of the upcoming book "How Big Things Get Done," and leading expert in the field of project management. He'll share his extensive research and data analysis on the methods and strategies used to successfully plan, execute and deliver large, complex projects such as infrastructure and transportation. Not only will he provide insights on how to overcome common challenges and pitfalls, but he'll also present a set of heuristics, or rules of thumb, that can be used to simplify and improve decision-making in large projects. Find out why wind and solar projects deliver to schedule, budget, and benefits so often, and nuclear projects so rarely. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to successfully deliver big cleantech projects.
