Practical Project Management
For Engineers
Get projects rolling from contract award to delivery while increasing your team’s productivity 5-10X using proven 80/20 Rule solutions.
In this training, we draw on guidance from the DoD, NASA, PMP, and best management practices from Steven Covey and Peter Drucker, to provide you with the distilled knowledge and tools you need to deliver quality products on-time and on budget.
We will walk through processes for delivering high quality, robust products and services while strengthening your team and customer relationships. And because in the real world it’s rare to meet schedules, we will also show you how to manage recovery plans and customer relationships to continue the future growth of your company.
Key takeaways:
– How to prevent half of all project failures
– Tools to increase productivity by 5-10X
– Best practice examples from industry leaders
– Managing recovery plans and customer relationships
