Project Management In Practice Overview
(Module 2)

Companies recognise that effective project management is a key factor in assuring project success. A knowledgeable and experienced project manager will drive an optimal project result and maximise the project’s return on investment.

The mark of a truly successful project manager is how they think and behave in the face of the multitude of ‘less-than-ideal’ situations that they are destined to face almost every day of their project management lives. They accept full responsibility for a project’s outcomes and assume the requisite authority to match. These high-performing project managers can strike a delicate balance of the following: analytical and critical thinking skills, superior communication, leadership, negotiation and facilitation skills, combined with a problem-solving, results-oriented focus.

This course has been designed with all the above in mind. With a range of best practice principles as its foundation, this course builds upon participants’ existing skills and knowledge by way of a ‘guided tour’ through a series of real-life scenarios, problems and issues faced by project managers across the board.

Who Should Attend?

  • Project managers wishing to build on their existing project management knowledge and experience (minimum 2 years’ experience required).
  • Project managers who have attended our Project Fundamentals course or equivalent training (minimum 2-day course).

This course provides participants with the opportunity to…

  • Critically analyse and problem-solve within a project based on typical, real-life scenarios.
  • Gain real-life skills for facing challenges they’ll be faced with when managing projects.
  • Build upon fundamental project management concepts.
  • Apply effective interpersonal, leadership and communications skills that will help appropriately engage and manage stakeholders throughout the life of a project.
  • Collaborate and share experiences and knowledge with other practicing project managers.

Trainers are skilled at both delivery methods and use the latest in virtual technology to simultaneously provide participants with the same interactive, multi-faceted and challenging learning experience. Whichever delivery mode learners choose, comprehension and recall techniques will be used to provide them with a solid understanding of Project Management in Practice.

For group bookings, courses can be customised to suit your requirements and conducted onsite at your premises, at our training centre, or virtually.
