Project Management 1: Foundations of project management - København

Learn how to work actively with stakeholder analysis

If you know how and when you need to involve project management tools in a timely manner in the project, you're definitely an excellent project manager. However, if you would like to involve tools instinctively and, in particular, connect them to each other, just keep on reading - IDA's project management course will be perfect for you.

You will learn the basic project management tools like stakeholder analysis, risk analysis and milestone planning.

We will review the project triangle as a basic tool for you as project manager in your cooperation with the steering committee. The whole course is built up as a case. In that way you get to work as a project manager already from the start of the course. The case is solved in groups. But we also work with you as a project manager and your role as a leader of the project. To be a competent project manager you need to be able to collaborate with other people and it requires a basic psychological understanding of people's behavior, motives and needs.

As a project manager you are better equipped when know yourself and your own reaction patterns. Because as a project manager you have a responsibility to create an effective, respectful and motivating collaboration with everyone in the team. On the course Project Management 1, the DISC profile is used as input for this. Participants will be given a personal DISC profile before the course. The yield is, among other things. that you get a better understanding of your own behavioral patterns, motives, reactions, etc. and also how these can be triggered or supported by other people with the same or other profiles. At the same time, you get a greater understanding of what lies behind the behaviors you encounter with other people and how it can be a resource in the project.
