Karate Project Management

The PM Skills They Never Taught You

2018 Training

COURSE DESCRIPTION

It is a fun workshop filled with hands-on exercises that reflect real-life high-performance projects’ challenges. Participants will be taught the Karate Project Management (KPM)© Seven Bodies of Knowledge as the core foundation of managing a project “energy” and its related constraints. Additionally, KPM provides the tools to succeed in project based on the principles of grounding, balancing, anticipating, harmonizing, reflecting, progressing, and resetting. Consequently, participants will be able to better handle projects’ FUD factors: Fear, Uncertainties, and Doubt. These factors include misdirection, unexpected delays, detours, complications, and unpleasant discoveries.

KPM is based on the ancient knowledge of the traditional Japanese Karate, positive psychology, Neuroscience (visualization) and the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK)©.

There are seven bodies of knowledge that will be shared in this experiential workshop: 1.) Project Energy Management, 2.) Project Emotional Management, 3.) Project Total Awareness Management, 4.) Project Harmony Management, 5.) Project Reflective Management, 6.) Project Continuous Improvement Management, 7.) Project Reset Management. The ultimate goal is to manage our "project energy" so we could "arrive" uninjured at the end of our project. By embracing the KPM mindset and skills, we could apply all these seven bodies of knowledge to create a state of "knowing" in order to manage our project risks effectively.
