Even though we want everything to go as originally planned, sometimes we have to be flexible enough to deal with changes along the way. How we handle changes will be determined by the successful completion of the project. Every experience we get from one project will help us to handle the next project better or differently. However, we also have to be open enough to know that with change in the scope, it is likely that there will be changes in budget, schedule, time and even task.<br /><br /><br />Reference<br /><br />Portny, S.

The project became so ...We Cannot Avoid Scope Creep<br />The project became so complex by adding the second deliverable, I wonder if the communication was good and if a new document (change of scope document) was established to determine the scope creep (Stolovitch, n.d.). As the project does develop, new ideas do creep up and problems do arise and must be resolved. It is good that the project did finally come to an end and everything was resolved. In talking with Elisia, I wonder if she thought there was wasted time because of the scope creep and if it may have taken less time if the scope creep was addressed when it started. Avoiding scope creep is impossible, but it can be controlled and monitoring reducing the problems associated with it (Portny, 2008).<br /><br />Portny, S. E., Mantel, S. J., Meredith, J.
