Project Doctor Masterclass and Coaching

Go from Leading Projects to Leading the Project Management Office

If you manage multiple projects with:

Then you understand the ways that all these project aspects can go wrong.

You may find yourself dealing with stakeholders who do not agree, or teams who have wildly different practices for communication or implementation.

Or maybe you’ve had trouble juggling projects that don’t line up due to conflicting timelines, that battle over resources, or that are just unrealistic to begin with.

How many times have you known exactly what was going to happen with a project, only to have your attempts to mitigate the damage be completely ignored?

As a Project Management Professional, you have the power and ability to make the professional lives of your coworkers as smooth as possible, so they can focus on their specialties and the company can keep humming along.

Much like a doctor has the ability to improve the quality of life for each and every of their patients, so too do you have the ability to improve the quality of life around you. To treat and cure the ailments that plague your professional projects.

But where can you get the training to do that to the best of your abilities?

Now you can get it inside The Project Doctor Masterclass.

Explore the Project Doctor Masterclass

Most professional development training programs take you out of your environment, have little time for Q&A and leave you to apply what you learn on your own.

The Project Doctor Masterclass is different. In this program we flip the script by spending the bulk of the time in group coaching sessions. These coaching sessions give you real practical support and actionable advice, so you can immediately apply your new project management skills to your particular challenges right away.

This Masterclass is geared for Senior Project and Program Managers, PMO Directors and Senior Managers who are responsible to deliver multiple projects requiring the coordination of enterprise-wide resources and the cooperation of leaders throughout the organization.

About Your Coach and Instructor

Hi, I’m Wan How, a career and project management coach specializing in helping project professionals advance their careers. I have over twenty years of project management experience in traditional, agile and hybrid approaches. As the leader of a Project Management Office, I led a team of project managers and business analysts to deliver corporate projects tied to the organization's business plan and strategic objectives. I’ve been lucky enough to work in the information technology, government, higher education, oil and gas, and engineering sectors.

At my last job, I led a team of project managers and business analysts to deliver corporate projects which were tied to business goals and the bonus structure of the whole company from the CEO downwards. When I got that job, the CEO came to congratulate me, shook my hand and said with a smile, "Wan, the weight of delivering the company's bonus now rests on your shoulders." The pressure was on and I managed to deliver above 100% year after year.

Over that time, I developed a blueprint for delivering a portfolio of corporate projects while also running non-corporate projects and spearheading a continuous improvement program. I have never shared that blueprint, not even to my PMs. In this Masterclass, I will share my secrets and how I overcame the various leadership and project challenges with proven strategies.

How It Works

The Project Doctor is a hybrid program. That means that while some of the program is delivered live, there are also pre-recorded training modules that you can view (and review) at your own pace. Those training modules cover:

  • My Secret Sauce to Over Deliver a Portfolio of Projects Above Target Year-after-Year
  • Deep Dive into Kickoff and Score Your First Goal
  • Test and Pilot to Fail Fast, Small, and Cheap
  • Are We There Yet? Check Up, Tune Up and Gas Up for the Final Leg
  • Gain Buy-in for Big Changes with a Big Event
  • Agile or Bust: Master an Agile Mindset for Everything
  • Blueprint to Rescue Troubled Projects in a Month
  • Exercise Horizontal Leadership and Become a Silo-Busting Leader
  • Step-by-Step Guide to Launch a Continuous Improvement Program
  • The Project is Not Over Until You Deliver the Benefits

In addition to the training modules above you’ll also receive a full complement of live trainings, group and personal coaching, case studies, and the support of a full community of practising project professionals like you.
