This course is also part of our five-day Project Management for Practitioners course which usually runs in parallel, so you can choose to undertake these two days or the full five days.
This highly interactive, results-focused workshop is ideal for project team members, practicing project managers and project leaders who need to achieve consistent project success through people. Participants will acquire advanced interpersonal skills and learn consensus-building techniques that help provide clarity and garner commitment from team members, customers and management. These influential skills are instilled in participants through real-world scenarios, which continually reinforce the skills, techniques and concepts necessary to improve project results immediately upon return to the workplace.
