It's tricky enough to spearhead a big project when you're the boss. But when you're the leader of a team of people who don't report to you, the obstacles are even greater. Learn how to establish credibility and control as a project manager. Learn a tools system to get successful project results from crossfunctional, outsourced and other types of teams. For project leaders lacking clear-cut authority, getting everyone on board—and keeping them there—can be a challenge. Examine strategies to get the best results from your team. Course topics include process tools, strengthening influence and credibility, team dynamics, building trust, influencing up, communicating with confidence, the body language of power and negotiation. Throughout the course, you are expected to actively participate in group discussions to help reinforce key concepts. Homework helps you review and apply the concepts in the real world.
