A 12 Step Program: Project Management for Non-Project Managers

About the Program

Have you or your team ever over-promised and under-delivered because there wasn’t clear understanding of a request? What makes a project different than any other type of request? How do you effectively deliver against expectations when you have no formal training in project management? If your team is plagued by missed expectations and disappointed customers or if you would just like to build some structure around inject requests that come your way. this session is for you! Doug Rabold will share the central tenets of project management methodology, distilled into twelve easy steps that anyone can use to effectively meet – or exceed – customer expectations.                                                                                                                                                                             

By the end of the session, we will have gained:

• Awareness that inject requests can derail normal operational responsibilities
• An understanding that any request can (and should) be treated as a project
• A simple methodology that can be applied to all requests - regardless of size - to ensure expected deliverables are met
