Read the following scenario:  

A large project that was running within the organization for the past four years needs to be closed. Toward the middle of the project, the project team felt that the project was gaining steam in the execution phase  and was progressing flawlessly. The project sponsor who was initially leading the project left for a job in another organization. A new sponsor stepped in and did not feel that the project was of any value. He  claimed that the organization was headed in another direction. He constantly criticized the project team and  made them feel like the project they had been working on for the past few years was not of any importance  anymore to him or the organization. He had not really taken a review of the project. He just made a  reactionary decision to cancel the project. He felt that the project did not fit into the direction of the  organization and would rather hurt than help the current environment. The project was canceled, the team  was released to their normal jobs, and the project manager was fired because the sponsor’s view of not  getting the job done correctly. The sponsor’s boss wants to understand why the project was canceled  through a post-project review.  Based on the given scenario, apply the four principles of post-project review and explain how the project  would have been evaluated. Remember the four principles of post-project review are objectivity, internal  consistency, replicability, and fairness.
