Lean Project Management

Learn how to manage projects that add long-term value to your company. NOT a list of insignificant anniversaries. Don't join the ranks of those whose initiatives fall short of expectations, are late, and exceed budget. Imagine running projects that surprise customers by delivering recurring value that customers can use, sooner than they expected, instead of the daily grind and stress of attempting to keep things on track.

Traditional project management methods make the assumption that projects are predictable. They are primarily concerned with delivering lists of milestones or software releases that do not provide any genuine, practical business value. Lean Project Management, on the other hand, recognizes that projects are intrinsically unpredictably unpredictable and builds your project to generate consistent, useful business value throughout the project, not just at the conclusion.

The approach taught in this course is relevant to all types of projects, but it is especially beneficial for IT-related initiatives. This is due to the fact that the outcome of an IT-based project is less physical and easier to describe than, say, a bridge. IT, on the other hand, is more adaptable than a bridge and hence lends itself to a lean strategy.

The course is provided in a succession of bite-sized films, with notes and references to go along with them. There are nearly 4 hours of video lectures and 17 simple exercises in all, all of which ask you to apply what you've learned to "your own project." A proposed "case study" is supplied for people who do not have a project to work on.
