An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Project Management
Project Leadership Best Practices
CLASSROOM DATES
INTRODUCTION
Effective project management requires not only technical expertise but also strong leadership that adapts to evolving business realities. Traditional tools, processes, and techniques remain essential, but they must be applied with flexibility in today’s dynamic and uncertain environment. This EuroMaTech Project Management Course emphasises leadership best practices that empower project leaders to align projects with organisational strategy, overcome uncertainties, and drive successful delivery.
Understanding the organisation’s vision, mission, and strategic objectives is the foundation for every project leader. Projects often begin with conceptual estimates, carrying inherent uncertainty. Strong leadership ensures these estimates are refined into reliable schedules and cash flow forecasts. Whether teams are working onsite under safety protocols or remotely, project leaders must ensure progress is monitored closely and delivered safely within agreed projections.
By attending this Project Management Course, participants will:
- Strengthen their ability to link projects to strategic objectives.
- Gain clarity on leadership roles of project managers, sponsors, and teams.
- Define success criteria and KPIs with stakeholders for measurable outcomes.
- Ask critical questions to address the "what, who, why, when, where, how, how much, and what if" of project challenges.
- Develop SMART project plans that encourage accountability, performance, and transparent reporting.
This introduction provides the groundwork for building the leadership mindset required to deliver successful projects. Delegates will leave with the confidence and tools to ensure projects meet both organisational and stakeholder expectations.
