Managing people who are temporarily assigned to a project under your leadership differs from managing an on-going workgroup. Special challenges are encountered and they require a different set of business planning tools. Project team leadership, political strategies and member motivation are different.
You will discover ways to create clear and visual plans and keep project team members working together efficiently and effectively. Discussion will cover:
- planning accurate schedules and forecasting
- creating budget estimates and contingencies
- defining roles and responsibilities of team members
- handling change control
-setting up your project for success
- managing stakeholders and expectations
-managing project risks
- methodologies
From long-range project planning, to political strategies for team building, to bringing closure to the project, you will leave with tools needed to be an exceptional project manager.
