Real world projects management

Good project management decreases the time to complete work and reduces errors along the way. It earns you repeat and new business through word of mouth. Whatever you call the work you do, good project management is good for business.

Organizations have recognized the benefits and increased their investment in training. Yet projects are no more successful than a decade ago: 75 percent produce marginal or no results!

Why? Most project management approaches involve too much theory and bureaucracy. They focus on skills for one project. In the real world, most people manage or participate in many projects.

Skills everyone can use

In just half a day “Real World Project Management” delivers the information you need to turn projects into profits. Learn methodology that works for any team that must collaborate to achieve objectives: in manufacturing, services and non-profits alike.

By attending, you’ll learn:

  • The important differences between conventional project theory and project reality and practicality.
  • How to define and achieve real project success from three perspectives: client, team and organization.
  • The seven most critical project management success factors.
  • Why you need to become a multiple project master.
  • How to keep your customer on task rather than the other way around.
  • The best way to gain team buy in.
  • How to showcase your project management skills to win contracts.
  • And more!

Seminar description

“Real World Project Management” is offered in full-day or shorter sessions throughout the year. Locations include our Aurora, Ohio, headquarters and destinations such as Put-in-Bay in the Lake Erie islands. Check each seminar’s description for details.

Presenters include John Robertson, RoviSys founder and president, experienced project managers and GrandView Business Solutions staff. At destination seminars, learning may be preceded or followed by sailing and boating excursions, shared meals and other opportunities to exchange ideas with seminar leaders and participants.

Leave with our biggest secret

Founded in 1989, RoviSys has more than 150 employees and $20 million in sales. We’ve completed more than 3,000 process automation projects worth from $5,000 to more than $5 million. This would have been impossible without our project management and collaboration methodology, which we reveal fully in “Real World Project Management”.

Who should attend

Anyone who manages projects and wants to improve results. Sessions are limited to a small number of attendees. Please register early.

Seminar fee

There is no cost for this seminar when hosted at The RoviSys Company.
