Taking the Panic out of Projects
What to do When You're Not the Project Manager

You're set to go. Your project has been given the green light. The budget has been allocated, you've lined up the subject matter experts, and you have a work plan. Suddenly, the focus is on you. How will you deliver a quality learning experience on time and within budget-and without a lot of crazy-making stress? Do you have the tools you need to track progress & confidently report status to your sponsors? How will you communicate effectively, and with whom?
