CSCCE Mini-workshops are 90- to 120-minute sessions that introduce discrete ideas in community management or go deeper on a core framework. They do not duplicate the materials covered in our multi-week courses, nor are there any prerequisites for participation.

Mini-workshop Description

This two hour session provides an overview of the concepts and approaches scientists can use in managing their collaborative projects. You will leave the session able to describe what a project is and the relationship between projects and operations. We’ll also discuss the three types of project and their relationship to uncertainty and complexity. Finally, we will explore the competencies of an effective project leader, whatever their job title. Please note that we also offer a longer-form Project Management for Scientists training that significantly expands on the topics covered in this Mini-workshop, and sets you up to put many of these principles into practice using Harvard Business Review’s Project Canvas.

Date and time: Wednesday, 5 November at 11:00am - 1:00pm EST / 4:00pm - 6:00pm UTC
