Understanding Before Doing: Planning

If you are a leader, a program manager, a project lead, or are a subject matter expert contributing to the success of a team - this workshop is for you. This workshop will introduce you to a fresh approach to leadership, a new approach to planning, and reinforce the importance of project management to help your team succeed in current and future endeavors.

The Planning Session will introduce you to a deliberate planning process. This planning process allows a team to organize information to gain an understanding of the problem, develop a solution, and articulate a plan. Understanding Before Doing is at the core why planning is important to understand the problem you’re trying to solve before trying to develop a solution
