Common Sense Project Management

How To Organize and Budget ANY Project

in 3 Hours or Less.

Is your project management system part of the problem or part of the solution?

Your business and its related projects need to be managed in order to compete and survive.

Today’s world operates on a level of complexity and competition that changes at a blinding speed. Projects that are not effectively managed to meet deadlines and budgets become instant liabilities.

Organizing, managing, and controlling your projects, regardless of their size and dollar figure, can become the key element that decides the success or failure of the objective.  

Most of the systems, software, and training programs offered rely on the adaptation of super-complex military-aerospace systems that are virtually impossible to use.

Common Sense Project Management™ was developed as a practical solution that addresses the needs of individuals and organizations so that they can devote their time and resources to the project and not in the management of the project.

Conventional project planning systems developed for the Military/Aerospace communities are far too complex for most of our daily planning and budgeting needs.

To be really effective, you need to stop wasting your time and resources using project-planning methods that are cumbersome and ineffective. Instead, you need to use a system that will let you manage the project instead of managing the monitoring system itself.

Common Sense Project Management™ is the answer to life's everyday projects. It’s a simple, easy to follow program that's guaranteed to teach you how to organize, budget, plan, monitor and control your projects.

Once you've learned these simple, yet effective techniques, you'll have more time and less stress on all your projects.

This program includes detailed information on:

• The benefits and dangers of planning

• Determining what you want to accomplish

• Establishing how soon you need it completed

• Budgeting

• The “quick step” method of planning a project

• Budgeting Tips

• Planning, Scheduling, Controlling, Terminating

• Setting up a reporting system

• Different ways to manage a project

• How to determine priorities for multiple projects

• Effective Meeting Management

Common Sense Project Management™ was created and is delivered by Mike Rounds , a former director of a Fortune 500 company and a program manager in the aerospace industry.

 His project management techniques have been effectively utilized to manage projects as large as $125 million dollars per year.
