The course will be held on-site at WU!
The course introduces students to contemporary Project Management necessary to organize change in organisations. Students learn basic concepts and principles of Project Management and social competencies as basis for Project Leadership. The course covers project management methods such as project objectives plan, work break down structure, project scheduling, project stakeholder management, project organisation and roles. Students apply these methods and concepts on their training projects. We also look into agility and agile teams in projects and reflect agile, hybrid and traditional project approaches. This skills course is both, theoretically based and hands on. By that it allows insights into the Project Management practice and enables students to reflect benefits and limits of project management. The course enables students to structure and manage small to medium sized-projects on their own.
