It is unique in that it is not a routine operation but a specific set of functions interconnected to accomplish a singular goal. In today’s business environment; where projects vary in size, scope, and timelines; employees owning the ability to simultaneously manage and complete multiple projects possess an invaluable skill. Handling multiple projects involves time management skills, empathetic stakeholder requirements, and an innate understanding of personal productivity limitations and constraints. This important workshop will discuss practices, project characteristics, and time management methodologies that support handling of multiple projects.
