PRESENTATION:
Prior to the call, the presentation will appear on the PM Lessons Learned group in Yahoo Groups (note: it may not be posted until just before the call).

NOTES FROM THE CALL:
In these times of economic belt tightening, many of us are called upon to become a “slash”, to become a Project manager / business analyst or a project manager / technical lead or some other combination of roles on a given project. How do you successfully navigate the multiple roles you are required to play? How do you play each role successfully? In this presentation Steve Blais will discuss the problem and opportunity of being a “slash” and suggest some tips and techniques that will help you perform each of the roles more successfully.
