Managing Projects Across BordersSM
Overview

Do you know what it’s like when negotiations with a potential international partner go absolutely nowhere even though initial interest seemed high?  Or when a foreign outsourcing vendor reassures you that everything is on track and you find out they’re way behind?  Or when project team members of your own company from different countries seem to act more like competitors than colleagues?

You’re not alone.  While international project collaboration has become a reality for tens of thousands of program and project managers in the United States, the track record is very mixed.  Organizations frequently struggle with misaligned expectations, differences in values and work styles, and the challenges of communicating across distances, languages, and cultures.  The Managing Projects Across BordersSM series is a unique opportunity for Executives, Program Managers, as well as for Project Managers and their Team Members to mitigate the many, often unseen risks in international project management.

Our  Instructors  command deep first-hand knowledge of international business practices, successes, and failures.  They base their workshops on the latest research in the field.

 

Our next workshop on June 2-4, 2008, covers the challenging area of
