Emotionally Intelligent Project Management

Would you like to be known as someone who gets things done properly and brings everyone along with them? Of course, you would.

Nowadays, everyone needs to be a project manager. The skills are enormously valuable and very transferrable; and significantly increase both personal and team effectiveness.

The Emotionally Intelligent Project Management programme takes a candid, jargon free and very practical approach to managing projects, both the process and the people. It takes the learner from set up of a project through to project closure. It emphasises the importance of strong, comfortable leadership and works with the learners to develop their confidence, self-awareness and their relationship with all the people around a project. Participants work on their own live projects throughout the programme.

Who is this course suitable for?
Anyone who has a project to lead or a body of work to execute.

Specialists who want to build their management and leadership skills.

Managers who are not project managers.

A manager and his/her team. As a result of everyone attending together, the manager can have full confidence when delegating any body of work to a member of her/his team, knowing that everyone has a common approach, a shared language and set of tools and a mutual understanding of how their project will be run and their roles in it.

This course is also useful for experienced project managers as a revision, and also as a highlighter of the importance of their leadership, people and communication skills.
