Often, the word ‘project’ elicits a groan from managers and staff alike. Whether you are managing projects alongside your day job or as a projects manager, you will understand the importance of getting things done.

By having a basic understanding of project management, you will be able to effectively manage and control your project, identify and mitigate risks, manage stakeholders, and ensure that the project is completed successfully.
