Hello Reader, These days, everyone is running projects. Whether you are a team leader, EA/PA, event planner, software tester... the list goes on. On Wednesday I'm leading a one-off training session on PM Basics: what to do, how to get started, how to break down the work, and keep everyone happy. If you've got new starters in the team, people you mentor or colleagues who would benefit, please pass the details on! Equally, if you are feeling like it wouldn't hurt to have a quick refresher yourself, then please join me. The training is on 13 November, 7.00 pm UK time (2.00 pm EDT). You will leave the live training knowing:
And you'll get a couple of templates that will help you identify priorities and get everyone on the same page about what work needs to be done so you can kick things off properly (without it feeling like you've got to jump through loads of hoops). It costs $7. Learn more and book your place here:
I hope to see you next week! Elizabeth P.S. If this isn't the right training for you, then Coursera probably has a course that is a better fit. I've done project management, programme management, AI, mentoring and leadership courses via Coursera. Their annual Plus account is 40% until 12 December. |

Or maybe it’s sticking to the habit of capturing actions after meetings or something. It’s silly. We all know this stuff is important. And if we can just get them done, the payoff...
Hello Reader, It's almost the end of the year! Have you prepped for your annual review yet, or started thinking about reviews for members of your team? I want to start 2025 strong, with more focus on balance. I have spent Q4 working bizarre hours on one project and I need to shift that around. What about you? It is a good time to be thinking about what you want to get out of 2025, even if you know that your plans and goals are likely to change. Is it training you're after? Is it a promotion?...
Hello Reader, Black Friday (day, week, month?) is here, and I'm happy to report that this is a great time of year for project managers to save on their training. Starting with my own. My past workshops are recorded and turned into virtual, self-paced training. I've gone through the most popular recent ones and bundled them together, and I am offering them at a discount. The training bundle includes: Project Prioritization Lessons Learned Made Easy Managing Money on Projects Confident Meetings...
