Leadership Development, 35 minutes, self-paced
Project Management
An overview of running a project built around five foundations: an accurate budget, a workable schedule, quality, risk, and communication. Worked examples cover estimating, telling sponsors honestly that a budget has to go up, choosing quality testing methods, categorizing risk, and planning communication by stakeholder role.
Included with the Thrive Platform, flat per organization. Courses set the language; live workshops are where the skill is built.
What you will learn
- Identify the five foundations of project management and what each one is responsible for
- Describe the budgeting practices covered, including parametric estimates, estimating by workdays, and giving sponsors accurate information when the budget must increase
- Describe quality assurance and final quality testing methods, including where a visual inspection is not sufficient evidence of quality
- Identify the questions used to categorize project risk, and describe how a stakeholder communication plan is built around roles rather than named individuals
