FranklinCovey Project Management Workshop

Date: Tuesday, October 27, 2009
Time: 8:00am - 5:30pm
Location: 4/f Ateneo Professional Schools, 130 HV dela Costa St. Salcedo, Makati

Many organizations face out-of-control costs brought on by projects that are full of changes, past deadline, over budget and that require more resources than originally projected.

After learning and applying FranklinCovey's Project Management process, participants will feel better prepared to effectively start, manage and complete their projects, regardless of size, scope, budget, or previous project management experience.

FranklinCovey's Project Management workshop involves four steps: visualizing, planning, implementing and closing. This proven approach helps project managers and their teams create, plan, implement, and complete successful projects on time and within budget.

* Decrease costs through better planning and less rework
* Hit project deadlines through smarter workload management
* Reduce time and money spent backtracking and redoing a plan
* Strengthen cooperation and buy-in from team members and stakeholders
* Gain greater control over a project's progress
* Focus on the right project at the right time
* Improve early recognition of potential problems and issues

Our unique approach encourages attendees to bring real projects for a truly hands-on experience. We invite whole teams to attend together, creating opportunities to unite and to learn solutions for specific challenges. The one-day training is ideal for those with no previous project management training and an increasing number of project oriented assignments. The two-day training is ideal for project managers and coordinators who work on more complex projects.

Join us on October 27-28, 2009. Register in groups and avail of our discount.
