About the programme
Fail to communicate the tiniest detail clearly and any project can turn into a disaster on a grand scale. In this insightful programme, which sets the scene for a whole range of training sessions, a realistically portrayed sequence of events illustrates how every member of a team counts.
The story follows an internationally renowned architect who fails to spot that the specification for a lift system lacks a crucial zero - and a prestigious project is doomed to failure. But he wasn't the only one to blame - everyone in the team from the office junior to chief sub-contractor is guilty of failing to communicate clearly and check detail. As detail after detail is overlooked, the knock-on effect proves disastrous and it's the combined errors of the team that bring about the ultimate failure.
Your organisation's projects might not be as grandiose, but they can have an equally significant impact on your business if they go wrong. The old moral tale that traces the loss of a kingdom to the loss of an insignificant horseshoe nail underscores this new cautionary tale for the modern era.
