Overview

Why should you consider the course?Known recipe for a successful project like:- appointing professional project managers;- appointing a competent project team;- developing a coherent project blueprint;- and the use of appropriate project tools, it doesn't work. 70% of projects around the world fail (soucre: Standish Group). Even if these principles are fully followed.Why is this happening? What is missing?Because there are three traps that a project manager and his team can fall into.These are:1) Endless, sometimes chronic and chimerical changes in project goals, scope, specifications, schedule, budget;2) Unexpected deviations from the plan. People basically know how to run a project when things go well. When things go badly - they don't necessarily deal with it anymore;3) Failure to meet deadlines and deliver expected results despite project monitoring;The course is very practical.I will share with you three lifewheels for projects.All will be presented using my own experience.What will you learn in this course?- How to manage project changes in advance using the Trade Off Matrix technique;- how to manage deviations using the Deviation Baseball Game model;- how to ensure the desired project pace using the Short Interval Control (SIC) mechanism;- how to increase your individual project success rate;Who should attend the course?I.
