Select leadership techniques to increase your odds of success
Apply the concepts of complexity science to project management
Use ESI's Complexity Indicator to assess your project's complexity level
Create an innovative framework for managing project complexity using ESI's Complex Project Model and Process
Course Synopsis
Have you ever taken on a project that appeared just too complex
to handle? Just trying to identify the multitude of variables to
be managed, let alone to anticipate how they might interact to create
unexpected challenges, can be overwhelming. So how do you determine
the true complexity, with a clear understanding of the variablesinvolved
and move forward to develop a plan that provides the right level
of control and flexibility for success?
To lead the complex project requires a new way of thinking - a new
approach to applying known project management techniques and tools.
Leading Complex Projects provides an innovative approach to assess
project complexity and to deploy the best techniques to achieve
success.
You will learn to use ESI's unique Complexity Indicator and Complex
Project Model to increase your effectiveness in controlling the
complexity in your project. The Complex Project Model provides valuable
insight into the variables that create the complexity of your particular
project. It enables you to select existing tools from a new point
of view that both limits the level of complexity and governs how
the remaining complexity is used for positive results - in short,
to stack the odds of success in your favor!
The exercises and readings are designed to give you handson experience
from a new perspective while determining the true level of project
complexity and using complexity to assist rather than hinder progress.
Among the tools provided is an automated template of ESI's Complexity
Indicator. Using your answers to the questions in the Complexity
Indicator, this tool automatically calculates your project's complexity
level, and plots the strengths and weaknesses of your project against
the nine areas of PMBOK® Guide.
This course is a must for the experienced project manager who needs
to manage the seemingly unmanageable! Reminder: It is highly recommended
that participants already have practical project management experience
and a thorough understanding of project management tools and techniques.
