Project Leadership, Problem-Solving, and Decision-Making
Many project leaders take a top-down approach to problem-solving and decision-making. This may be adequate for some technical situations, but most project problems and conflicts result from a lack of communication and teamwork鈥攁nd a reluctance to seek input from others.
In this course, you'll be introduced to a project leadership approach that combines individual strengths with team processes to make timely, effective decisions. The payoff will be a project culture with a consistent record of success.
