Do you have methodologies, clear processes, and systems in place to manage your projects? Are your projects able to meet the business objectives they intended to achieve?

This is a course that focus on the practical aspects of the project management which will help you in managing and delivering your next project on time, on budget, and to customer requirements. This course on project management fundamentals, is targeted at individuals who manage projects as a primary function of their work or need to deal with change as part of their operational day to day work. Continue with these tutorials to gain an operational understanding of the basic concepts and tools of project management as well as advanced tools to manage the real-world challenges you will face.

Managing Change Effectively

Change is a complex phenomenon. There are different types of changes that are going on around us. The change could be triggered by market changes, technological changes, or organizational changes. Change is inevitable as market expectations are not static, new technology is constantly being developed, and organizational responses are inevitable to these sequences. It is a simple matter of business evolution.

Not so long ago, you can imagine how some traditional business houses would have resisted any changes in the mindset and approach. Whereas the managers today, are expected to constantly innovate and lead the changes which have had the biggest impact on business, industry, and society. Types of technological development have to be focused on the understanding of futurology. They can no more stick to what they know we are good at and so on. There is an emerging need to approach the present from the standpoint of the future.

That's how all these developments have occurred- so much so that we find it difficult to realize the amount of resistance they initially caused. If every manager and every employee could have some understanding of the triggers of change and their relationships with each other, then the acceptance to change would be easier. Learn the art of understanding the nature of the changes we can expect, and how to anticipate and lead the change to create a world in which we live and the future we can create.
