Companies of all shapes and sizes are increasingly reliant on teams focused on specific projects to manage initiatives and organisational change. At the same time, most professional workers are managing their own projects as part of ‘business as usual’, in which they are the project manager and the project team. Without project management skills, this can be daunting and insufficiently productive.
However, when people have learnt the fundamentals of project management, they will feel much better equipped to manage projects confidently, be it as part of a project team or managing their own projects. These fundamentals are not just about managing timings and the various stages in a project but importantly, also the people side of project management, such as communicating, influencing, leading change and managing conflict.
After our Project Management training course, participants will have a clear understanding of how to manage their next project.

When you are working on a project — whether you are the one leading or participating in a team or you are the team — there are a number of skills that will allow you to excel. These include:
Many of these are effectively “people skills,” both for keeping yourself going strong and ensuring everyone else on the team is staying the course.
The good news is that to excel at project management in Australia, you don’t need any set qualifications. You will just need to be able to use the above skills to work within or oversee a project team, effectively deploying all the knowledge you’ve acquired over the course of your career.
Those skills are applicable in a broad range of industries and for businesses of all sizes. Whether you are working on your employer’s first-ever project team or this is the kind of thing that happens on a weekly basis, these skills will be vital.
When you are managing a project from the top down, you are overseeing a lot of moving parts. Whether it’s a human resources project, or you are developing a new process, product or service, the same leadership and management tools will always be necessary to manage the project for success.
Want to improve some of those skills? We have a few suggestions for how to do so.
There is no set point at which you have fully learned what it takes to master business project management. As with many other things in business, the things that work today might not work tomorrow.
You will therefore have to constantly hone your skills so that you can always be an agile project manager.
You can be a more effective project manager or participant at any level of your career. Whether you’re just getting your feet wet in an entry-level job or you’ve been a C-suite executive for years, you can manage projects effectively.
The good news is that these skills will typically benefit you no matter what your career path looks like, and can help you accelerate your climb up the corporate ladder.
