The art of productive laziness – how to be twice as productive and still leave the office early – a one day workshop with Peter Taylor (The Lazy Project Manager) | ||||||||||||||
‘Progress isn’t made by early risers. It’s made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something.’ Learn about the art of productive laziness with the lazy project manager; understanding what is meant by the ‘productive lazy’ approach to projects (and life) and learn how to apply these lessons ‘to be twice as productive and still leave the office early’. The seminar will cover the definition of productive laziness, the science behind the theory (yes there really is some), and will share some personal learning experiences that led to the creation of ‘the lazy project manager’. In addition the audience will be led through the three key project stages, one of which the ‘lazy’ project manager works very hard in and the second they should be in the comfortable position of enjoying the ‘comfy chair’ safe in the knowledge that the project is well under control. A specific focus will be made on the third area, project closure, which can be done so much better with very little effort but with a significant value add for all ‘would be’ lazy project managers. Who should attend The workshop is directed at anyone who is directly or indirectly involved in project based activity, experienced or otherwise, and is a great team building opportunity: • Project managers All are welcome, only a keen interest in learning more about what an effective project manager, and project team, can deliver is required.

His presentation was one of the most exciting and memorable speeches we’ve ever had!” Malgorzata Kusyk, Project Manager, Thomson Reuters January 2011 “Peter is a self-effacing presenter poking fun at himself. All of this is what makes him so good.” Karen Fox, President, PMI NYC September 2010 “Peter is a highly knowledgeable expert. He has a unique ability to deliver even the most complex messages with ease, using humour to connect with the audience, leaving a lasting impression.” Mihaly Nagy, Project Zone; Copenhagen and Budapest 2011 “Peter did not disappoint – I’ve been involved with organizations that produce sessions for members for many years, and the feedback following Peter’s was among the highest I’ve ever seen. Not only is he presenting highly relevant and interesting concepts to get you to look at things differently, he’s also a very engaging speaker who breaks down the theories into manageable, easy to learn concepts” Barbara Porter, PMI IT & Telecom Community of Practice 201 Bookings for this event are subject to the APM terms and conditions. |
