Overview
Managing projects everywhere in the world is a big challenge, but in China the rapid change experienced makes project delivery even more challenging. By using the right tools and following the proper procedures project managers can mitigate the probabilities of failure on the projects. Over 61% of the projects worldwide do not achieve the key objectives set up for them, and the lack of proper processes and tools is one of the key factors for that low rate of success.
For the first part of the seminar, the attendees of this training will take a look at a powerful ERP tool to manage IT projects more effectively and efficiently. Also, the training will provide a risk management methodology by the Project Management Institute (PMI) and a risk management tool to properly mitigate risks on projects. By offering a concise explanation along with solutions based on case studies, the forum will cover all areas of project risk management, as well as the necessary steps to achieve the functioning of international project management practices and standards.
The second part of the seminar will introduce a new and powerful system, Kickass Projects (KAP), which enables companies to clearly see their achievements and easily measure results. KAP helps companies properly structure projects to maintain a high level of motivation and reach the ultimate goal.
