This also includes the selection of the project manager and the creation of a success-oriented project culture. You will acquire the ability to have an overview and set priorities even for a large number of projects.
YOUR BENEFIT
We work with you in a very practice-oriented manner. The theoretical inputs are set and discussed in relation to your situation in the company. We are not interested in the perfect theory, but in the practical benefits in everyday life. In the seminar not only methodical, but also organizational and human aspects count, because we look specifically at the overall system “project” and its integration in your company. This seminar is based on recognized standards of the Project Management Institute (PMI)®.
