ML145 ABCs of Managing Projects and Collaborators

Community-based projects often bring together diverse stakeholders and partners with a variety of needs and contributions. Whether your project team consists of members of your organization, community partners, or volunteers, working collaboratively has both advantages and challenges. Effectively managing projects includes demonstrating both strong organizational and interpersonal skills that create results. How can you drive effectiveness and efficiency within these diverse groups? How can you best manage the strengths of your team to reach its goals? How can you help prepare a team for the developmental stages they will encounter while working together? This course uses participatory learning to introduce key components of project management, explore how individual strengths impact group performance, and offer a new lens to approaching your current projects. This course welcomes both veteran project staff who are looking to innovate the way they do things and professionals who are newer to collaborative processes.
