Data-Informed Decision Making in Projects: On-Demand Project management professionals constantly need to make project decisions that could be decisive for the outcome of their projects but often do not have sufficient information available to confidently make decisions. As a result, projects are increasingly falling short of delivering on their promises, requiring, more than ever, a data-informed approach to decision-making in the area of project delivery and management. The rapid growth of data comes with various challenges though, which consequently needs consideration of various critical factors for a successful implementation of a data-informed decision-making process in organizations and projects. What You Will Learn At the end of this program, you will be able to: Describe and understand the relevant methods and techniques to identify, acquire, and analyze relevant data points for decision making in projects Articulate analytical questions to focus on the real problems Identify potential shortfalls and gaps in project decision-making and apply actions to mitigate them Introduction to Data-Informed Decision Making The different types of decisions in projects Data-informed decision-making framework Shortcomings with traditional decision-making models Understanding the value of data for project delivery Issues in project management and how data can help solve them The DIKW Pyramid (Data, information, knowledge, wisdom) Types of data in projects Applying Data Analytics Understanding Data Analytics Levels of Data Analytics Data-Informed vs. Data-Driven Challenges and How to Address Them Project data availability and collection Data quality Behavioral blockers and bias Skills and Techniques Data literacy and data fluency Communicating for informed decision-making Monitoring and evaluating project decisions Implementing Data-Informed Decision Making Decision-making strategy and governance Project data culture Continuously improving decision quality Future Outlook for Decision-Making in Projects Data and AI Digital Decisioning

Managing Complex Projects: On-Demand As knowledge and technology expand exponentially, organizations are finding that the tools, processes, and methods used to select, plan, and manage their projects are insufficient for the challenges posed by them. The goal of this course is to provide participants with a working knowledge of project complexities and a framework for managing the ambiguities involved in today's fast-changing, competitive, and technology-based environment As knowledge and technology expand exponentially, organizations are finding that the tools, processes, and methods used to select, plan, and manage their projects are insufficient for the challenges posed by them. Complex projects don't necessarily follow the rules of traditional projects - in many instances the projects' end-products, and the methods by which they will be produced, are not easily defined. Stakeholder diversity and geographical dispersion contribute to the difficulties project managers face in their efforts to gain acceptance of project goals, objectives, and changes. Additionally, hierarchic leadership styles, traditional lifecycle approaches, and traditional project manager competencies may no longer maximize the efficiencies that need to be realized on complex projects. The goal of this course is to provide participants with a working knowledge of project complexities and a framework for managing the ambiguities involved in today's fast-changing, competitive, and technology-based environments. What you Will Learn The learning objectives of this workshop are to enable participants to: Appreciate complexity and its impact on the management of projects Describe the differences among traditional, complicated, and complex projects Explain the effects of complexity on the PMBOK® Guide's process groups Apply a high-level model in the management of real- world projects Complexity and Projects Some characteristics of complex systems Important models/characteristics of complex projects Major players in project complexity Landscapes and project typologies A supplemental framework for complex projects Framing Framing overview Potential pitfalls in framing complex projects Possible solutions Inception Centrality of risk management PM competencies, selection Stakeholder identification, analysis Blueprint Collaborative planning Stakeholder engagements Alternative methodologies/life cycles Collaborative scheduling Procurement management Oversight, Navigation, and Adjustment Leadership and the project team Stakeholder management Networks Close and Continuous Improvement Transition/support Post-project evaluations Rewards/Recognition
