Managing projects requires the ability to set clear objectives, report, project plan, work collaboratively, navigate uncertainty, and monitor and control project outcome. Project managers need to be skilled at motivating and influencing a diverse group of people. Project managers must know how to communicate, coach, train, listen, and deliver results while working with people from different cultures, age groups, backgrounds, and levels of knowledge. They must also be leaders who are able to balance priorities, scope, budget, schedule, people management, planning and organizational concerns. In short, project managers need a comprehensive set of knowledge, skills, and attributes to be effective. That is a tall order. Train with us, put those skills to work, and you’ll be ready.
