The purpose of this course is to provide people who work on teams the knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to effectively and efficiently manage or contribute to teams while working on projects. This course is for ordinary people; that is, anyone who has to work with two or more people on any type or size project. You will learn basic project management techniques and the importance of including the team during planning, along with proper team member selection and role assignment. You'll learn the number one cause of project failures, how to reduce or eliminate the risk of conflict, and how to manage conflicts that do arise. You'll learn to recognize the importance of and opportunities for shared leadership, individual empowerment and choosing the right communication techniques which allow a team to reach a significant accomplishment in a short period of time.
We use the concepts of Choice Theory and Cheetah Communications (aka Non-Violent Communication Theory) and themes from Cheetah Negotiations to have you recognize individual needs and feelings and experience the effects of different choices and responses you make to situations you encounter during the simulation. Using basic Cheetah Project Management techniques as a life skill, you'll leave with an understanding of how to plan projects, select team members and assign roles, and keep teams on track while eliminating the ways you may contribute to conflict in a team. You'll learn techniques to significantly prevent or reduce conflict within your own groups, and methods to use to reduce conflict and to improve team selection and performance. |
