Course description
Identifying and managing stakeholders in projects (Course code: IMSP)
Organisations lose money, operate inefficiently, and can ultimately damage their reputation through poor project management. These issues result from professionals unsure of how to deliver projects well and so go beyond allocated costs, timescales, and scope.
Whatever the type and complexity of the project, individuals can learn how to communicate effectively with project stakeholders to leverage their power and influence to ensure successful outcomes and benefits for the organisation.
This course (which includes training materials) teaches effective stakeholder communication and management through a structured project life cycle approach.
- This course provides concepts, tools and techniques used in stakeholder management within projects and incorporates leadership skills
- The course focuses on management of stakeholders, in essence, people management - those who work on the project (such as team managers) and those on the periphery (such as investors) - and can have a significant impact on a project's end results (both positive and negative)
- This training can be used as a launch pad to the study of PRINCE2 accredited courses - in-depth learning, with exams on completion, that provide a route to qualifying as a practitioner
- This course is typically taught over one day and the schedule can be adapted to suit organisational requirements. It is a complete course without the pressure of exams
- The course is delivered to companies virtually, in-house or at a training venue
