Here's how Practical Projects helps you to deliver successful projects without stress every time.
We know that so many important projects fail for one reason or
another - causing immense cost to the businesses and organisations
commissioning them and significant stress to the people managing them.
Nowadays the majority of managers are responsible for project management in one form or another.
In many cases these managers will have been given responsibility for
managing a project either without adequate training or they will have
been overloaded with project management techniques that are so
complicated they're more overwhelmed and stressed with the project
management than with the project.
That is why Practical Projects exists - to help more projects be
delivered successfully and to reduce the stress on the managers
responsible for them. Meet the creator of Practical Projects - Chris Croft.Chris is a management trainer with an education in Engineering, a
background in senior management and then as a University lecturer.
Inspired by his aptitude for solving problems Chris originally
trained as a Chartered Engineer with a Manufacturing Engineering honours
degree from Cambridge University. From this he went onto a successful
10 year career as a senior manager in manufacturing working in the
plastics, automotive and aerospace industries.
During this career Chris was constantly responsible for delivering
projects both as a project manager and as a senior manager with overall
responsibility for a portfolio of projects. It was in this career that
Chris witnessed how he and some other managers had the ability to
seemingly manage their responsibilities successfully with little effort,
whilst others put in great effort without the same level of success.
It was this puzzle and his insatiable desire to solve problems that
took Chris on to study an MBA to unlock the secrets of successful
management. It was whilst studying this MBA with many hours spent
studying management success that Chris was able to discover that the
secrets of great management were not as elusive as they at first
appeared.
With this knowledge Chris took on a role as a Senior Lecturer at
Bournemouth University Business School where for 4 years he developed
and taught a number of training courses that were the inspiration behind
launching his own training business in 1997 - Chris Croft Training.
Since then Chris has trained over 40,000 people and has developed a
reputation for delivering practical management training that teaches
essential management skills in a simple and fun format. There is no
reason for management training to be boring and with Chris it never is.
