Project management for non-project managers can't cover the whole discipline in 60 minutes, but it can focus on the tasks that decide whether any project succeeds. Without basic tools, it is very hard to reach a fixed end date without turmoil.
This webinar explains what a project is, what project management and the project manager involve, and how PMI and the PMBOK fit in. You'll walk through the project phases, the triple constraint, authority and responsibility, and why stakeholders and a strong initiation matter.
The session then covers the statement of work, the project charter, identifying tasks, planning tools and controlling the project, giving you a foundation for further study.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Job titles often don't reflect the work people do. Global teams and collaboration can put people in charge of complex projects with little preparation, and working across functions, cultures, languages and time zones adds challenges for a new project manager.
This session suits senior directors, directors, managers, supervisors, engineers, scientists and associates who lead or may lead projects.
