People skills for project managers – engage and motivate for a better result

People are vital to the success of every project. Without their engagement and buy-in, even the best planned and managed project may not succeed. But the essential skills needed to inspire, motivate and manage the individuals involved are too often neglected and overlooked.  Most project training and literature provides little guidance on how to best work with and influence people involved in your project.

So I am pleased to offer a new one day session to help you engage and motivate people on your projects, and produce better outcomes as a result,

I can adapt and amend to suit the needs of your organisation, and I am delivering as an open course for Housing Quality Network in September – more details here – People Skills for Project Managers

There are new dates added for public courses in London, Birmingham and Manchester in the Autumn.  See details below, or get in touch if you are interested in adapting any of the elements of this course for an in house session.

Project Management Bootcamp

Most organisations run projects – but under 40% of those projects are delivered on time, on budget and achieve their objectives.

A project has a much higher chance of success if the strategy is clear and everyone involved knows the principles of running a project.

We have developed a one day course will lead you through the essentials of project management, why it is needed and what makes a project run well.

Here are further details of the course we are running for Housing Quality Network.  Project Management Bootcamp

The course can be adapted depending on needs of participants. Please get in touch if you are interested, or would like to discuss any aspect of improving project management within your organisation.
