Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course builds on the foundation provided from the same author in another CED Course No. B08-001, entitled "Project Performance Secrets".

 

How many projects meet 100% of the performance expectations that were identified during the strategic planning process? Is even hitting 90% realistic or is the number closer to 80%? How about 70%? An article in the Harvard Business Review, Turning Great Strategy into Great Performance, identified many reasons why companies typically only realize a little more than 60% of their strategies' potential value. This course builds on that article to help project leaders make sure they get the most performance out of the strategy which led to their project. We will take a "here's-the-problem, here's-a-solution" approach to help students of this course not repeat common project mistakes and maximize the potential of their project's performance. 

 

This 4 PDH online course is intended for engineers and project managers who are involved in management of all aspects of the projects and are seeking a better understanding of enhancing project performance.
