Politics Around Projects

Politics Around Projects

Short description

Themes of Power

Based on an elaborate case, this training will help you gain insight in the decision making around projects from a ‘political’ point of view. During the training, you will have every opportunity to exchange experiences and discuss insights in a fraternal environment. 

Target group 
This training is aimed at Project managers with responsibility for steering strategic projects. You will need experience in project management and knowledge built during, for example, our ‘Project Management for Project and Team Leaders’ or ‘Project Management Leadership’ trainings.

Course content
The training deals with the following topics:

  • Introduction to politics within organisations
  • Case
  • Force field analysis
  • Organisation culture
  • Incident method
  • Control tools
  • Assignments and (personal) testing


Competences strengthened during the training:

  • Managing suppliers
  • Thinking in a visionary way
  • Independency
  • Political sensitivity

Results
Upon completion of the training you will have a thorough understanding of the force field around a project (in trouble). You will be well capable of recognising situations and patterns in this respect, and of developing responses within the ‘political reality’. You will also be able to recognise and name the type of behaviour to expect from all people involved.
