Testimonials

I especially find valuable the element of dealing with people and effective communication tactics in this course. The most value I think is the instructor's teaching from experience, best practices, and advice, that's not detached from operating in the real world. Real world examples. Interactive exercises (breakout rooms). Content summaries (questions).
Logitech
It was good to refresh my knowledge of project management structure and tools. It was particularly helpful to review the Project Charter and it's value. It was also helpful to review the Control Loop and importance of the status updates. The mix of explanation and group discussions is a good one. It breaks the session, but due to that I also met some new people at Logitech :) And I liked that the session always started exactly on time (not even 1 minute late) and finished exactly on time too! Payson mentioned in the end of the training that waiting costs money, so he surely was practicing what he preached.
Logitech
I liked the focus on project planning, risk identification, and mitigation strategies, which completely shifted the way I think about managing projects. I left with a stronger mindset and practical techniques I can use immediately.
Saint-Gobain
I appreciated how the course simplified complex project management concepts into clear, actionable steps. Payson was very knowledgeable and kept our attention.

This is an absolutely brilliant workshop for folks whose major job role is Project Management! Payson was an engaging instructor and provided super useful content.

Peter was great! He presented practical techniques that we practiced - The “Message Map” which gave us a structure for organizing the content of presentations and staying on track. “The Hook” tool created more effective “openings.” Will recommend to my colleagues.

Being that I’ve been an IC for all of my career and that transitioning to a people manager role for the first time will be occurring in the near future, I would say that “all” modules of the program were very valuable.
