Project Management Training, Coaching, Mentoring

Less experienced project, programme or risk managers often need post-training mentoring and consultancy. The objective of this support is to ensure embedment of the concepts covered during training into working practices.

Project Advantage has considerable experience in providing this type of assignment, which typically includes activities such as:

One-to-one sessions with individuals to support them in their new or enhanced role
Briefings or workshops for small groups with specific roles or responsibilities
Remote support, by telephone or e-mail, to review management documentation or discuss specific challenges
Post-project reviews/lessons learned reports

Projects and Processes

Line organisations have evolved from a process background within cultures that encourage and reward the creation of successful processes. Staff in line organisations will have developed in an environment where the creation and maintenance of processes results in advancement.

When staff move to a project environment, they must adopt a different set of priorities. This transition may be reasonably straightforward for junior and inexperienced staff who are moved to full-time project roles. The situation is much more difficult for senior staff. Firstly, they are likely to have more experience of a process culture and will regard it as a successful way of doing business. Furthermore, they are likely to split their time between a process culture and a project culture.

A variety of aids need to be put in place to assist staff to operate in a project culture.

As they move along this path, they will need different levels of support and direction. Furthermore, the level of support and direction that is given to them will subconsciously communicate to them how the organisation perceives their development.
