|
What is your approach
to learning? |
| |
|
We have been
involved in helping and supporting individuals (and
organisations) learn and develop for many years. Our approach is
based on people ‘learn by doing’. This means running
participative workshops with debriefed discussions which
specifically bring out the learning.
We develop case
studies and activities to link with the objectives and themes
for the course. Experience (and academic research) shows the
above approach to work and be beneficial to individuals and
organisations. |
| |
|
I want some one to
one help. What sort of support can you give me? |
| |
|
Yes, we can provide
one to one support for individuals. Click

|
We have a group of
people all working on a project. Can you help us at all? |
| |
|
We have in the past
worked with project teams and will continue to do so. We will
work with you to scope out our involvement and then work
directly with the team. The approach we take depends upon what
is required. Do call us on 020 8446 7766 to discuss your needs

|
What support do you
give before and after a course? |
| |
| We
can design a simple straight forward course which is all some
clients want or we can create a real development programme that
will really improve the skills of your staff. What do I mean by
this? Look at the example below: |
| |
|
Stage
1: |
Participants receive an e-course covering areas which
includes risk management, project planning,
managing stakeholders etc. The e-mails encourage people
to work on an aspect of their project e.g. carry out a
risk analysis on a project based on either the in-house
risk process or one Project Agency has.
We also include free
materials such as our Tips Booklet and project
management templates, all free! |
|
Stage 2: |
Pre course work. We send out joining instructions
for each event describing in broad terms what the event
will cover, timings etc. We also include some
questionnaires for people to complete and discuss with
their manager and bring along to the course |
|
Stage 3: |
Running practical project management events building
into these events post course learning opportunities. |
|
Stage 4: |
Post
workshops companies have a number of
options. Some of these are shown below:
a
one to one
coaching where individuals work on real business related
projects
a
challenge
and support groups -a unique Project Agency approach
that helps individuals develop their action plans - a no
cost option
a
action
learning sets where small groups come together to help
each other solve real project management issues
a
a six months
review of the learning with all of the course
participants
a
a focused
workshop based around Project Agency’s training guide
Deliver That Project linking back to the learning from
the course. |
