Project Management – What Works, What Doesn’t

-- and how to Promote one and Prevent the other!

We would probably all agree that building a boat is a ‘project’ – but what else do companies do that would be considered a project worthy of ‘project management’? This interactive workshop will introduce participants to the Seven Stages of Project Management and help them understand how different people in their company are tied to the project.

Organizations need frequent tune-ups to maintain effective workflow amid change. Jim has long experience – plus creative tools -- to help executives analyze their organizations, then design and implement better ways.

Project Management is the 21st-century model for managing complex, risky innovations to on-time outcomes within budget. Jim Milliken offers workplace-tested designs in customized formats for onsite implementation and classroom training.

Communication is the lifeblood of human organization, in small partnerships and large corporations – and the pipeline to their markets. Jim provides practical approaches to all the oral and written forms.

Personal Productivity is fundamental, and it consists of skills that can be examined, practiced and perfected. Likewise Leadership and Supervision. Jim has common-sense training designs for dozens of these essentials.

There is no obligation, financial or otherwise, arising from a preliminary discussion of consultation or training solutions.
