Mastering Project / Event Effectively
OVERVIEW
This program focuses on key practices and issues relating to the four key event management phases namely "Planning", "Developing", "Executing" and "Evaluating" as well as on human dynamics which are critical success factors in event management, such as communication, influencing, gaining consensus, problem-solving, meeting, coordinating, adapting, dealing with change and team-building. During the course of the program, participants will experience learning and application of various skills to manage unexpected changes and overcome challenges in a simulated case content to which participants have to respond and react as in the "real work context". In addition to case studies and skill exercises, frequent facilitator-led discussions require participants to apply what they are learning to the case and to other practical examples.
