Overview/Description
As the project manager, you're in the center of the storm. The competing interests of stakeholders--including those of the client, the company, the legal and social environment, and the team itself--are your responsibility. Weighing these interests in the most fair and productive manner is an acquired art you can't afford to neglect.
But that's not all. In an increasingly global network, project managers won't get far without an understanding of cultural diversity, and how to work successfully with multi-national teams. Sensitivity to other groups, their social customs, and their means of doing business is key to success.
This course teaches the common areas of stakeholder conflict and how to wend your way through the conflict negotiation process. It also examines the need to respect cultural differences and teaches how to achieve success in a cross-cultural situation.
