Overview
Project leaders are more than just project managers; they possess a highly desirable blend of technical prowess and leadership skills. In order to build a high-performing project team, you need to harness the collective intelligence of the group and exercise influence—with or without authority—as you oversee the project to completion. Leadership and interpersonal communication skills are the key to optimum group performance.
This six-course certificate series, authored by faculty from Cornell University’s College of Engineering, is designed to build the critical leadership skills that Project Management Professionals (PMPs), project managers, and business managers need to lead a project team.
The courses in this certificate series integrate collaborative group projects, practical case studies and interactive project assessments.
