Don't be in a panic the next time a project is dropped on your desk; learn to effectively manage projects to meet expectations and maintain budget.
Faced with a large new assignment and no experience of working on this type of activity or anything this large, it is easy to lose confidence. As you move forward and hit roadblocks or potential risks become reality, you may be discouraged. Mastering the fundamentals of project management, used by millions of people on projects throughout the world, you will be in a strong position to prevail and prosper. Banish your doubts with proven techniques that help you get the successful results you need.
