Run projects that actually land on time, using plain-language tools for scope, sequencing, and progress, with zero certifications and zero buzzwords.
You are already running projects. Nobody taught you how, so they slip, balloon, and limp to a finish that never quite feels finished.
Most project advice drowns you in Gantt charts, certifications, and an Agile-versus-Waterfall holy war that has nothing to do with shipping your next launch. The hard parts are simpler and more human: saying no so scope holds, ordering work by what unblocks the next step instead of what feels urgent, and admitting that everything takes longer than you guessed.
This course strips the jargon and gives you the moves that matter. You will treat the plan as a working tool rather than a prophecy, run a premortem that imagines the project already failed so you can fix it now, tell real progress from looking busy, and define "done" before the work drags on with no end in sight.
Founders: juggling launches and hires with no PM training and no time to earn a certificate.
Accidental project leads: handed a deliverable and a deadline, now responsible for getting other people to finish on schedule.
Operators and team leads: want a repeatable way to scope, sequence, and track work without adopting a heavy methodology.
