Tools for smaller projects

Project management "in a nutshell"

This training is held in German.
Do you work alone or in small teams under enormous time pressure? Do you have to manage your projects in parallel with your day-to-day business? Managing smaller projects comes with its own set of problems. The typical PM techniques are too big, too complex - the effort and benefits are often out of proportion. In this training course, you will learn about quick, practical and efficient tools for small and medium-sized projects.

Contents

The order clarification

  • Clients rarely give clear assignments. If you want to have clear objectives, you need to ask the right target questions, record requirements, clarify priorities and formulate the project brief during the assignment clarification phase.

Compact planning

  • If you want to regulate what needs to be regulated, you have to plan stages and activities, estimate the effort and duration and document plans well.

The risk check

  • If you want to avoid nasty surprises in the course of a project, you need to identify and assess risks, take appropriate preventive measures and make contingency plans.

Project management

  • If you want to keep a project under control, you need to define maintenance intervals, record the status and take important changes into account.

Leading without instructions

  • If you want to motivate project participants to work together, you have to be able to lead - even and especially without the authority to issue instructions.

The orderly conclusion

  • If you want to improve step by step, you not only have to master the acceptance process, but also learn from your mistakes.

Learning environment

In your online learning environment, you will find useful information, downloads and extra services for this qualification measure after you have registered.

Your benefit

You will learn from an experienced expert from the field how to

  • receive a clear mandate for your projects,
  • ensure that your project is supported within the company,
  • plan with little effort so that everything that needs to be regulated is regulated,
  • avoid unpleasant surprises during the course of the project,
  • encourage others to cooperate even without the authority to issue instructions,
  • Recognize deviations at an early stage and get them under control again quickly and
  • Bring your project to a proper and successful conclusion.

The seminar participants work in a concrete and practice-oriented manner using their own projects. All the tools presented will be applied directly to the projects you bring with you in exercises. Your questions will be addressed, discussed and answered during the course of the seminar.

The training ensures transfer to your everyday project work. With new impulses, you can continue working directly on your own projects.
