Time Management for Managing Projects and Complex Tasks

Time Management for Managing Projects and Complex Tasks

Time Management for Managing Projects and Complex Tasks incorporates best practices from a range of professional frameworks like Agile SCRUM, to create a real-world time management training course for the real-world project manager.

Managing complex tasks, like projects, requires a range of time management skills. Most important is the estimation process for costs and timings. Most project estimations are difficult to forecast, hence why a large number of projects end up being delivered over-time and over-budget.

We introduce course participants to a range of modern tools including mobile apps, online counters and timers, which allow you to better leverage your time while at work.

Mobile devices can now be important tools when improved productivity is the primary goal. Learn essential skills like how to conduct multiple estimation techniques, delegation of tasks, meeting management, managing a crises situation and much more!

You will learn about your ownpersonality type as well as other personality types and how to engage others in an entirely new way that provides a path to better communication and improved time management skills.
