Participatory Project Management Part 2: Project Planning

Description: Teaches a two-phase approach to design a project with 8 – 30 planning participants. Project Design integrates the team’s thinking into a consensus project framework, so everyone is clear on the scope and level of effort needed. Project Planning develops the plan for a project or prototype that is launched in a coordinated and efficient manner. Students use the project development framework to create a project plan using a relevant or real project. Teaches how to harness participation to produce outstanding results.

Part Two: Project Planning is devoted to teaching the ToP® Project Planning methodology, brainstorming and organizing key actions, creating motivated project teams, designating timelines and developing a calendar of events, coordinating the work of the teams, communicating with stakeholders and marketing the project.
