PMBOK® Guide Knowledge Areas Covered:
Increasingly, work is done by real-time, project-specific teams. As the core of an organization shrinks, better use must be made of the resources that remain and of contractors, temporaries, and part-timers. The complex resource management challenges that result are natural applications for project management skills. These skills facilitate any activity comprised of defined interrelated tasks that must be completed on time and within budget, while meeting specified customer requirements.
This unique team-based simulation workshop allows participants to put into practice the tools and techniques to manage projects successfully, keeping them on time, on track, and on budget.
Managing By Project is designed specifically for those who must create projects from the ground up and then manage them. This is what they practice and learn to do by actually doing it in the course. These managers may or may not be at a more senior level, but typically spend the majority of their time managing projects, may manage larger and more complex projects, and often manage multiple projects. It is equally valuable for technical and non-technical managers, and is useful to individual contributors as well as to project leaders. Both line and staff functions will benefit from attendance, and whether you are a seasoned project manager or new to management, you will grow and learn from your experience.
Upon completion of this simulation workshop, participants will be able to:
