Most people are very familiar with Winston Churchill but may not be familiar with his “agile” approach to project management and his skills as a PM in the summer of 1940.
Part 22 looked at the historical sequence of events between June and July 1940. This article examines August 1940 for the utilization and the effectiveness of Churchill’s solution. It tries to answer the most difficult question of any project, namely: Did it meet the requirements and reach its goals? Did the output (solution) achieve what it was designed to do? Did it assist in a critical situation and help the organization react to it?
The third phase of the battle starts in August as the attacks on shipping continue, but bombing raids start to concentrate on RAF airfields. The Luftwaffe strikes its first real blow against Fighter Command’s ground organization.
