What is it about?

Picture this: You’ve just been asked to lead an exciting new project. The mix of excitement and nerves kicks in—you’re thrilled by the opportunity but also wondering, “Where do I even start?” If this sounds familiar, don’t worry. This session is here to help.

Even if project management isn’t your full-time role, chances are you’ve already applied similar skills in other contexts—like planning events, running campaigns, or organising teams. You likely have many of the foundations in place already.

In this workshop, you’ll explore the mindsets, skills, and behaviours needed to deliver projects successfully. Through a blended learning approach, we’ll equip you with practical tools and resources to apply immediately to your next project. While this session won’t give you a formal qualification, it will dramatically boost your confidence and ability to manage projects effectively.

What will it cover?

By the end of the session, you will:

  • Understand what project management is and why it’s essential for you and your organisation.
  • Set up a project for success from the outset.
  • Contract effectively with a project team to align on goals and responsibilities.
  • Facilitate a pre-implementation review to anticipate challenges.
  • Apply the principles of great working relationships to project contexts.
  • Build a climate of safety where mistakes are seen as learning opportunities.
  • Adopt a mindset of continuous improvement to refine your approach.

Who is it for?

This learning bite is ideal for anyone responsible for leading, managing, or contributing to a project as part of their role—even if they’re not a full-time project manager. The session will accelerate personal growth and improve performance by focusing on project management for non-project managers.
