The new triple constraints for sustainable projects programs and portfolios

Gregory T. Haugan

The next decade will bring a new set of challenges created by changes in the Triple Constraints-population, climate change, and energy. Since most program life cycles last five to ten years, understanding these issues is a must for today's project, program, and portfolio managers. This book explains how the Triple Constraints will impact project undertakings in the near future. Presenting timely data and forecasts on population and climate change, it supplies a rational basis for addressing the coming problems
