Course Overview

Project Managers use a 50:50 rule-of-thumb when it comes to the success of their projects. It simply means that 50% of their success comes from how they apply structure and methodology to the project and 50% from how they manage people. This workshop covers the essential people areas that Project Mangers need to get right. The day is part training and part workshop where delegates have the opportunity to work on their own real situations.
