Register Now for our project management courses

People have markedly different ways that they perceive and assimilate information, make decisions and solve problems.  These differences reflect our personal preferences for one way of approaching a problem over another.  As our projects become more complex with team members often working virtually, understanding and attending to these different thinking styles and problems solving styles can change the way your lead your team throughout the project life cycle to a successful conclusion.  This course s designed for individuals interested in learning how to capitalize on their preferred style of problem solving, decision making and creativity AND the styles of others.

In this course we will focus on the project manager as a problem-solving leader and examine the impact of thinking and problem solving style on the project management process.  Students will study the highly validated Whole Brain Model of the Herrmann Institute developed under the leadership of Ned Herrmann.

The Hermann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBD) has earned both scientific and experiential credibility.  Students will have an opportunity to complete the inventory in the course and use the results to strength their understanding of their own thinking style preferences as well as examining the implications of these theories on the effective functioning of project teams and the role that project managers can play in optimizing that effectiveness.

Our next course starts June 1, 2009.
