Frequently Asked Questions
How is the project management training programme structured?
The programme is normally delivered over two days back to back, either in a hotel or at your company's offices in Dublin. It can also be spread across four separate sessions over eight weeks, delivered online, or broken into focused sections covering specific topics like team management, motivation, or growth mindset, depending on your organisation's needs.
What agenda does the course typically follow?
Day 1 typically opens with a creative Play-Doh introduction activity to get participants talking and surface their questions about project and people management. From there, the course covers different types of projects through a marble run activity demonstrating Agile and Waterfall approaches, followed by sessions on scope management, prioritising high value and low effort work, stakeholder conversations, and how to manage risks and issues effectively.
Day 2 often begins with a practical stakeholder communication technique that James describes as a superpower for project managers, a simple but rarely used approach to getting active stakeholder support. Participants then work through a hands-on exercise to plan a real project using post-it notes, creating something they can take away and use immediately. The afternoon covers team management, motivation, difficult conversations, growth mindset, and managing remote teams. The day closes with a review of questions raised on Day 1 and an open Lean Coffee Q&A session.
Can the project management training be customised for my team?
Yes. The programme can be tailored around a relevant case study or built directly around your team's actual live project. This bespoke approach is a speciality of the course and sets it apart from standard project management training available in Dublin, giving participants the chance to work through real challenges they are facing every day.
Is the project management course available online or in a flexible format?
Yes. While the standard format is two consecutive days in person, the course can be delivered online or spread across four sessions over eight weeks. Individual modules focusing on areas like motivation, team management, or growth mindset can also be run as standalone sessions, making it a flexible option for teams with varying schedules or training needs.
What industries is the Impactful Project Management course suitable for?
The course is suitable for every industry. Current and past participants have come from IT, financial services including banking and insurance, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, the public sector, healthcare, charities, consulting, small businesses, medium sized businesses, sports organisations, and community groups. If your work involves managing projects, teams, stakeholders, or workloads, this project management training is relevant to you regardless of your sector.
Why should project management training be tailored to different industries?
Because every industry is different, every company within that industry is different, and every project within that company is different. A one size fits all approach to project management does not reflect how work actually gets done in the real world. That is why Impactful PM teaches a toolbox of dozens of tools and approaches, allowing each participant to select and apply what is most relevant to their specific organisation and projects.
What is the toolbox approach used in the course?
Rather than teaching a single rigid methodology, the course equips participants with a wide range of tools, techniques, and approaches covering areas like planning, prioritisation, stakeholder management, team motivation, and risk management. Participants then choose the tools that are most appropriate for their company and their projects. This makes the training practical and immediately useful across every industry and organisation type in Dublin and beyond.
