The Human Component of Project Management

A major source of project issues tend to be associated with the project’s triple constraint – scope, schedule and budget. But poor communication makes it worse, and often the lack of communication is the only reason an issue arises. That’s why managing the human component through proper communication and engagement is one of the most important aspects of project management. If you are a project manager, especially one from a technical field, who find themselves struggling with communicating, motivating, and influencing others, this workshop is just what you need.

Learn how to process, to identify, acquire, and manage the resources needed for the successful completion of the project. Examine processes required to identify the people, groups, or organizations that could impact or be impacted by the project, to analyze stakeholder expectations and their impact on the subject, and to develop appropriate management strategies for effectively engaging stakeholders in project decisions and execution.

This workshop covers material from chapter nine, 10 and 13 of PMI’s A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide). It is also third day of our three-day course titled Fundamentals of Project Management, our four day course titled Project Management Best Practices, and our five-day course titled Project Management Body of Knowledge Best Practices. If you have an interest in acquiring a more in-depth knowledge of project management, you might consider taking one of these courses.
