What is it? |
|
What is the format? |

An introduction to Situational Project
Management deals with the softer issues always
found within projects or activities that involve
virtual teams working across boundaries.
Designed to give managers an insight into how
people react to certain situations within the
project, the types of characters and their
agendas and drivers. |
|
This is a fully interactive session which will
follow a loose agenda (see below) to allow the
meeting to flow the way that best suits the
delegates. Those delivering the workshop come
form both sides of the project situation and
have extensive experience in running successful
projects to time and budget. |
