Harrisburg University offers programs that explore the human side of project management, in addition to standard practices in the project management methodology. Our signature event is the Project Leadership Forum, a two-day professional development program, held annually for experienced project managers. The Forum explores how project managers can become organizational leaders and strategic partners with executives and project sponsors, by going beyond the basics, to address the strategy, culture and people that comprise projects and the organizations in which they exist.
Enhancing your skills as a project LEADER will help you do more with less, and enable you to increase projects' ROI and reduce failure rates by having more influence over results.
Leadership is a proven factor in project success and a skill any project manager can develop.
