Lo que serás capaz de hacer

Udemy's "Smart Tips" is the ultimate micro-learning series. Short, standalone lectures let you learn new skills at your own pace, anytime, anywhere. Find what you need, when you need it. Elevate your learning with Smart Tips! If you have been assigned to a project at work or if you are an ambitious person, this course is for you! Why? Because at some point or another every professional is asked to be part of a project or lead one as the project manager. But the world of projects is completely different than the world of operations and theory is very different than practice. Projects are unchartered, intense terrain , which I call: Projectland. Consider me your tour guide through the intense terrain of Projectland. I will share strategies and practical techniques to help you navigate and succeed in your own version of Projectland. By the end, you will be able to decide for yourself if navigating Projectland is scary or exciting. You’ll learn to think more like a professional project manager , equipped to assess and respond to project risk, so that you can deliver results. You will also be introduced to the project manager role, so that you can decide whether it is a good fit for you. If not, you can direct your career to be more suited to your strengths. In this course, you will gain skills in planning, leading and delivering successful projects, which will help you to accomplish more, stress less , impress your boss and achieve your career goals. You will learn... 1. What a project is and what it is not, so that you can know which work on your plate will benefit from project management techniques 2. Who is in Projectland including what the boss of a project is called, a deep dive into the project manager role and an introduction to different kinds of team members 3.

Short, and straight to the point presentation. Easy to follow with lots of nuggets. Highly recommended.” ~ Mark M. “Excellent course. I am mentoring someone now as they consider a project management career path and will highly recommend this course.” ~June N “I've taken graduate level project management courses at University of Chicago. So, I have a good foundation. Dawn's style and examples provide real world and practical tools to build on that foundation. I stepped away from managing projects for several years. This course rekindled the interest and makes me look forward to the challenges again.” ~ Mary Kay C. “For those who aren't all that familiar with project management principles, this is a fantastic overview . So many clear definitions, real-world scenarios to tie them to and action items so you can put things into practice. Great course!” ~ Rebecca J “Excellent course. Not only very good tips but key project management basics. Nice format, nice presentation (besides excellent quality videos ) with practical downloadable resources and tools . Fully recommended!” ~ Juan R “I was a complete newbie to project management and this was just what I needed .” ~Aivars G A PwC study of over 10,640 projects found that only 2.5% of companies complete their projects 100% successfully. This course is full of practical tips that will help you improve your chances of being part of that tiny top 2.5%. Since initiatives or projects are formed because results are expected, NOT delivering can quickly become detrimental to your career. On the flip side, doing a great job on projects can boost your visibility and be a great opportunity to accelerate your standing in any organization. I am so excited about this course, because after teaching and coaching thousands of ambitious professionals around the world, leading a new Project Management Office in the Fortune 500, advising top executives and spending over 20 years in Projectland, I know that a quick video series that professionals could learn from and secretly lean on as a refresher is incredibly valuable.
