Creating High Performance Project Teams

Two Days

Have you ever wondered why highly skilled individuals on a team didn't reach the level of success you expected? Your challenge is not unique. Any organization that is populated with human beings has problems with teamwork. Simply trying harder won't fix it - that's for sure.

Specific skills you will learn:

• Launch - Planning the mission and forming the team
• Stabilize - When the team goes off course, bringing it back by resolving conflict and reaffirming values
• Cruise - Getting the project completed and keeping it going through good times

Who should attend?

Project Managers, Programmers, Analysts, Project Support Teams and You, the Manger, your Key Customers and Users and all those who work on teams.
