Project Management Training

Ron Rosenhead is someone I have a lot of respect for.

He’s a project management consultant and trainer, and shares a pragmatic approach to managing projects in the real world.

He and I had a great discussion for almost 2 hours Inside pmStudent e-Learning about:

  • Getting Started in Project Management
  • PM Involvement in Business Cases
  • PM Communication Styles
  • Managing Technical Staff
  • Coaching other PMs
  • Choosing Methodology
  • How Team Members can introduce PM practices
  • Dealing with Conflict
  • Motivating Project Teams

Ron is going to be in Central London on November 16, 2010 running a course you should plan to attend.
Now, you might be thinking “Hey Josh!  You provide training to new and experienced project managers too, isn’t he a competitor?  Why are you plugging him?”


Here’s the deal.  My passion is teaching people to manage projects.  I want more people to experience the benefits and challenges of this career and get better at running their projects.  It helps everyone.  So, people who I know do a great job are my allies, not my competitors.
That goes for Cornelius Fitchner, Alex Brown, Derek Huether, Tom Mochal, and others who might be perceived as “competing” with me.
