• Poster were not printed in time • Graphic designer was late • Red bull didn’t work out • Lack of ‘what's in your fridge’ uploads • We kept a risk log throughout the process which we
added to • Made sure we had appropriate contingency plans
What did we do well? • Worked well as a team • Flexibility and Adaptability • Stall in the atrium • Innovative
What did we learn? • Importance of communication • Being realistic • Naivety • Professionalism
What would we do differently? • Prioritise the APM challenge • Utilise our resources more • Select one deliverable • Communicated more with certain
