Become The Project Doctor in 10 Weeks

At my last job, I led a team of project managers and business analysts to deliver corporate projects which were tied to business goals and the bonus structure of the whole company from the CEO downwards. When I got that job, the CEO came to congratulate me, shook my hand and said with a smile, "Wan, the weight of delivering the company's bonus now rests on your shoulders." The pressure was on and I managed to deliver above 100% year after year. Over that time, I developed a blueprint for delivering a portfolio of corporate projects while also running non-corporate projects and spearheading a continuous improvement program. I have never shared that blueprint, not even to my PMs. In this Masterclass, I will share my secrets and how I overcame the various leadership and project challenges with proven strategies. The training sessions will cover:

  • My Secret Sauce to Overdeliver a Portfolio of Projects Above Target Year-after-Year

  • Deep Dive into Kickoff and Score Your First Goal

  • Test and Pilot to Fail Fast, Small, and Cheap

  • Are We There Yet? Check Up, Tune Up and Gas Up for the Final Leg

  • Gain Buy-in for Big Changes with a Big Event

  • Agile or Bust: Master an Agile Mindset for Everything

  • Blueprint to Rescue Troubled Projects in a Month

  • Exercise Horizontal Leadership and Become a Silo-Busting Leader

  • Step-by-Step Guide to Launch a Continuous Improvement Program

  • The Project is Not Over Until You Deliver the Benefits

Project Doctor Coaching for 10 Months

Most professional development training programs take you out of your environment, have little time for Q&A and leave you to apply what you learn on your own.
