What people say about the mini course
A practical, relatively succinct overview for kickoff meeting prep and some practical tips – found it quite useful and used it as an outline to plan and execute a project kickoff (which went well). The video is clear, well laid out and certainly professionally put together. The checklist was useful to flick through and ensure I hadn’t forgetting any important prep. The ‘rules of client engagement’ was particularly useful, inspired by this, I wrote up a ‘guidelines’ doc covering similar material which helped get a difficult team member aligned prior to the client kickoff.

I want to say your mini course is wonderful. In fact I have more than 15 years working in management projects but with an empirical approach. Your course is an excellent guide with very detailed points to follow. Thanks to create that specific kind of course.
