Course Overview

Top
 

There is no question that the role of a Project Leader is becoming more and more challenging. Projects are increasing in size and complexity and, as a result, project teams are becoming larger and more diverse making projects more difficult to lead. Additionally, as many organizations execute multiple projects concurrently, Project Leaders and team members may find themselves stretched across a number of projects at the same time. These factors, in combination with the fact that Project Leaders often lack formal authority over team members, means that  individuals responsible for leading projects need new and different skills to be effective in today’s environment.

The 3 day Leading Project Teams workshop has been developed to help build the skills and knowledge Project Leaders need to improve project results and deliver more business value.
