PMBOK® Guide could be a treasure to all project managers. It is a matter of how to unleash the power of the Guide. Project management professionals (PMP®) may study the Guide for examination purposes rather than using it in projects. Further to the release of the Seventh Edition of the PMBOK®, project managers may still be unsure about how to practice the methodology. This requires a lateral approach to interpret the methodology and convert it into daily practices.
Course Objectives
This is a one-day course which aims to provide practical guidance on helping project stakeholders (incl. PMP®) decode the PMBOK® Guide and maximize its values. Participants will study the key terms that are difficult to understand or implement. In the workshop, participants will view the PMBOK® Guide very differently and apply it in live projects.
The course will cover the following contents:
- The key success factors of running a project by PM professionals
- • The sideways interpretation of the features of the PMBOK® Guide
