Projects are opportunities for business development, organizational improvement and change management. The project management approach adopted by PRAXI integrates knowledge of the most important organizational tools with the ability to manage key relational and negotiation dynamics to increase the performance of project interventions. Course instructors have significant experience in corporate project management and are able to transfer models and methodologies for conducting and working on projects that are useful in overcoming organizational criticalities and conflicts that often slow down or hinder the achievement of inter-functional objectives.
