Summary

Want to take your project management career to the next, higher level? Feeling overwhelmed by a pile of new duties and responsibilities? Need methods to get the work done more effectively?

This seminar helps health professionals lead an existing project while utilizing valuable project management skills. Using the participant’s project as a primary focus we’ll address tactics for directing the project team; conducting progress tracking and goods procurement; as well as the daily management of stakeholders, budgets, and outcomes. We will give special attention to handling project issues and change gracefully, focusing on a proactive approach aiming to prevent trouble rather than react to it. Next, we will recognize that projects always end and we will learn methods for concluding an effort by building bridges into the next project. Wrapping up the class we will review the fundamentals of agile project management.
