Project Leadership Foundation
Change in business is everywhere and the need to identify and develop capable project leaders has never been more pressing.
The road map for developing programme and project leaders generally has three identifiable stages. Firstly, understanding the processes and techniques of project management to deliver a self contained piece of work, secondly, engaging with stakeholders to deliver a wider change through people and thirdly leading a multi-faceted complex change programme.
The transition from managing to leading a project is a critical step that requires close attention and constant development. This programme provides a comprehensive introduction to the role of the project leader and the specific skills required to deliver change through people.
The Project Leadership Foundation is uniquely constructed using the following components:
Two linked “Theme Days” which provide highly focused learning and explore the challenges of leading projects successfully;
Action Learning where each cohort member commits to completing a personal development plan which will embed the learning;
A personal coach/mentor who will support develop ment on a one-to-one basis;
An on-line assessment to raise self awareness and identify emotional strengths;
Supplementary Masterclasses and other group events to support additional related development needs;
A graduation recognised by the Association for Project Management.
A Follow-Up Day to consolidate the learning and prepare participants for their next steps.
