COURSE OVERVIEW
Good projects start with a clear plan.
Learn how to transform a business idea or workplace project into a clear, actionable project canvas — defining the problem, objectives, stakeholders, activities, resources, risks and success measures.
COURSE INTRODUCTION
A good project should be clear before it becomes complicated.
Many projects begin with a good idea but quickly become confusing because the team has not agreed on what they are doing, why they are doing it, who is responsible and what success looks like.
This practical workshop gives participants a simple visual method for planning a project before moving into detailed schedules, reports and documentation. Participants work on a realistic project and leave the workshop with their own completed Project Canvas.
