Project Management Essentials

Course Details

Successful project management isn’t just about strategy and managing logistics. It’s about getting people to work together and volunteer their best efforts, especially when they don’t work directly for you. Real project success combines proven project management skills with proven people management skills to achieve consistent results.

Participants of this course discover a simple framework for strategy, as well as understanding how to implement the Four Foundational Behaviors that inspire team members to execute with excellence.

Utilising the All Access Pass with Covey, purchased by SISTAD, this course offers a practical means to develop more effective project management to completion, using process and people techniques.
