The problem & the solution

What is actually going wrong, and what changes

Right now
  • Reacting to issues as they rise instead of proactively managing them
  • Feeling like your project is running you, rather than the other way round
  • Wanting to be respected & recognised for your work, rather than overlooked & undervalued
What the programme gives you
  • A clear, stage by stage framework so you can run every project as a Trusted Advisor to your Client
  • Weekly mentorship to help you fill in any specific knowledge gaps & tailor the content to exactly what YOU are struggling with
  • Weekly Stretch Challenges to make you step out of your comfort zone & take your career into your own hands

In 8 weeks you will run your project with structure instead of instinct, & be able to hold your ground with people more senior & louder than you.

Questions

The things people ask before they book

Is the course right for me if I am already a Project Manager?
Yes. The upskilling track will help you learn faster, take on bigger projects & get the recognition you deserve.
Is the course right for me if I am not yet a Project Manager?
Most people run projects regardless of the job title. We help people pivot into Project Management, & accidental Project Managers who simply want to be better in the role they already have.
I do not know if I have time.
It is 3.5 hours a week, designed around a full workload. The weekly call is booked into a slot you choose for the whole programme.
Do I need any previous qualifications?
No. Real world experience & a desire to do things better is the entry requirement.
Will I get a certificate?
Yes. It can be used to discharge formal CPD requirements with the relevant professional bodies.
Can my employer pay?
Absolutely. We provide invoices to help with internal approvals, & a sponsorship overview you can forward.
