60 Minutes

Complex projects have many moving parts, and without a clear method they slip on time, budget or results. This 60-minute project management training gives you an easy-to-follow, staged method for running a project from kickoff to close.

You'll see why managing stakeholder expectations matters so much, and how to deal with the challenges that stall a project, including getting decisions out of stakeholders and running team meetings that actually move work forward.

The session also covers the practical tools behind good project control: task lists and delegation, SMART goals, baselines, a communication plan and ongoing monitoring.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Project management combines skill and method in planning work and directing resources so a project finishes on time, within budget and with the results the organization expected. This one-hour webinar covers the basics of handling plans, people and deadlines.

You'll learn to track a project through every stage, solve problems more effectively and make decisions with confidence. It suits anyone who leads or contributes to projects.
