Project Management For Non-Project Managers
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Project management is not just for designated project managers. A project—no matter the size—requires you to use sound project management principles, including interacting with stakeholders, managing and mitigating risk, and following the project lifecycle.
If these projects are not managed effectively it can result in delays, wasted effort, increased costs, negative impact on organizational reputation as well as stress and failure to deliver on the full benefits of the project. With some basic project management training, staff can gain the right skills and knowledge to better manage these projects.
The workshop has been designed and will be delivered by a certified project manager. The course provides hands-on experience on using best-practice tools and techniques to plan and manage a project successfully.
