Practical Project Management for SMEs
Practical Project Management for SMEs

The most important thing to know about project management is that first and foremost it's a way of thinking about projects. Whether it is implementing a marketing plan, launching a new product, implementing a new accounting system or any project, the methodology behind project management will greatly assist in obtaining success in the endeavour.

Project management is not simply drawing charts, or using project management software, or leading teams, or any other technical material. These are all means to an end: helping you control your projects to achieve your goals - on time, on budget, and according to performance standards.

Topics covered include:
  • What is a project
  • Defining a projects goals and objectives
  • Starting to plan
  • Laying out the project
  • Analysing the tasks
  • Managing time and cost
  • How to make and use a Gantt chart
  • Using Pert and CPM charts
  • Budgeting for projects
  • Managing the project
  • Monitoring and adjusting
  • Techniques for managing multiple projects
  • How to wrap up a project

    Tools and exercises will be provided so that you can practice the techniques and strategies covered in the course. These will also help you think out strategies for dealing with different people and anticipate their possible reactions.

    ABOUT SME ACADEMY
    When you book a course with SME Academy, you are assured that you will be learning from someone who has relevant practical experience.

    Why is this important? Because at the SME Academy we believe in delivering courses that have a positive impact on your company and provide a return on your investment.

    We also ensure that everyone who attends a course has the opportunity to have one-to-one support from our dedicated team afterwards (see below). This safeguards your investment by assisting you and your colleagues to apply what has been covered on the course.

    Everyone on our training team has extensive practical experience of their topic. We firmly believe that trainers should be able to share their own first hand experiences of what works…and what doesn't.

    OTHER SERVICES

    Coaching:
    All delegates will be given the opportunity to take up optional one-to-one business coaching or mentoring.  When you work with a coach or mentor, together you will examine the different ways in which you can apply the tools and techniques covered in the live workshops to your business or your role.  You will always be working towards a clear, agreed outcome with your business coach/ mentor, so that you can monitor the performance of the new strategies. You’ll set goals with your coach/mentor and work out a plan to achieve them.  Coaching is a very effective way of helping you in any of the areas covered by our courses.

    Coaching is available as either face-to-face sessions or as telephone coaching.  We are happy to arrange group coaching  sessions via a tele-conferencing service to help your delegates to embed their learning from the course. 

    Please contact us for more information about coaching services and our rates.

    Consultancy
    The SME Academy specialises in Business Growth Consultancy.  If your business is growing faster than your people can handle or if you would like some help in planning to take your organisation to the next level, please contact us for more information about how we can help you.
