Project Management Fundamentals for Managers

Project Management|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers earned value management and agile and scrum practice from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because most project failure is visible in the schedule long before it is admitted in the status report, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with stakeholder communication, portfolio prioritisation and lessons learned in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Spot where stakeholder communication is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the PMBOK guide
  • Take ownership of portfolio prioritisation rather than escalating it
  • Review lessons learned and say plainly whether it is working
  • Bring project closure into line with current good practice
