Too often executives think of project management as something "those people in IT need"

But what about your sales force?  HR?  Marketing?  Finance?  Customer service?

Whether we realize it or not, everything's a project these days, and the margin of error continues to shrink. 

Not satisfied with how the business is delivering projects?  Want to improve your ability to deliver?  Want to work more effectively with others in your organization who are "doing project management"?

Want to do this without tying up your people for weeks of training?  This workshop is for you. 

Project Management for the Business can be customized to either a one or two day workshop specifically tuned to your organization. 

Who Benefits from this Workshop?
Business professionals from any department that need to work with other teams to deliver results.  We have effectively helped people at all levels of the organization and across every department.

The workshop can be particularly effective as:

• a required part of the development plan for employees in your department
• a component of a company or department offsite meeting
• training that combines members of your teams with teams from other departments

The session was interactive, highly tailored to our situation. It was clear you had done your homework to understand our company. I look forward to implementing these techniques and tools.  Stephanie

What Participants Will Learn:

• Why it's not a matter of if change will occur on projects--it's only a matter of when
• Strategies to deal with changes when they do occur (instead of hoping things will just turn out)
• How to set up a project to succeed from the beginning
• Top reasons for why projects fail (and key factors contributing to success)
• How to more effectively understand stakeholder needs and manage their expectations
• How to increase accountability with project teams
• How to better understand what needs to be done on a project
• How to more effectively determine the tasks required for a project
• How to use risk management processes to better prepare for uncertainties
• How to develop communication plans that work
• Why project retrospectives are so important and how to conduct them

This workshop steers clear of technical jargon and tools.  Rather, we use the language of the business and focus on practical principles that work in the real world.

Think that project management training has to be boring?  Absolutely not!  Your participants will leave armed with practical information, and will have enjoyed every minute of it.
