Day 1: Project Management 101 (Wed, Sep 1, 2021)
What is a project? What is project management?
You might think project management is very technical and is limited to the industry. However, you might be surprised that you have been doing projects for a long time, and project management skills can help you reach any goal you want in your day-to-day life!
In this workshop, part 1 of the project management series, you will learn about the fundamentals of project management, the key concepts, processes, and anything that contributes to a successful project with hands-on exercise.
Day 2: Change Management (Wed, Sep 15, 2021)
The COVID pandemic has been shaking up the way we work and live. Yet, while “Change is the only constant in life.”, nobody can predict the future. So how do we ensure we can reach our goal under uncertainty and changes?
In this workshop, part 2 of the project management series, we will discuss change management and best practices under the project management framework.
Day 3: Communication, leadership, and stakeholder management (Wed, Sep 29, 2021)
Suppose you ask project managers how they spend their time. They will tell you they spend more than 90% of their time in communications, such as getting the project approved, motivating the team, managing expectations from stakeholders. In fact, people can make or break your project!
In this workshop, part 3 of the project management series, we will focus on the essential skills: communication, leadership, and stakeholder management, so you can deliver a successful project smoothly.
Please be aware that we will take pictures during the event, which will be published on our website and social media channels and can be reused for marketing purpose at a later stage.
