Managing project teams
About the training
The
training is primarily aimed at individuals with
responsibility for structuring projects (e.g. project
managers, project leaders, coordinators and line
superiors).
This
training specifically addresses the question of how
participants can be brought together as a proper team at
the beginning of a project, how differing interests can
be accepted and nevertheless brought under one umbrella
and how any risk of disintegration that may arise during
later phases of a project can be effectively countered.
An
example project is repeatedly used to show how to
identify dynamic group patterns that can occur in
project teams and how to act / respond promptly if they
do arise.
Objective
The
participants learn
-
how to
avoid key errors from the very outset and encourage
identification with the project and the project team
-
the
underlying effects of group dynamics on a project
team, how these can be identified and how they can
be effectively countered
-
what
steps are necessary to keep individual project
members motivated
-
how to
deal with typical sensitive project situations while
taking into account team dynamics
Method
The fictitious project
"Filan market launch" is used to identify key milestones
and typical situations between the start of a project
and its conclusion that are particularly important in
terms of team dynamics. Approaches are discussed, played
out in the seminar group and then applied to real life
circumstances. Typical project situations experienced by
participants are actively included in the discussions.
