SUMMARY:Project Management Essentials for Scientists: ACS Virtual Office Hours
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by ACS Careers\n9:00 am-10:30 am\, Online\, Free\, Registration required\n\nGreat science depends on more than technical expertise. Project Management Essentials for Scientists gives you practical project management skills to help you step outside your technical box\, make better decisions and work more effectively across your organization. You’ll learn how projects are planned\, prioritized and governed\, gain the language and confidence to communicate with colleagues beyond your technical sphere\, and develop a broader understanding of how organizational decisions are made. Whether you’re leading projects today or preparing for your next career move\, these skills can open the door to new opportunities beyond pure technical chemistry. \nParticipants will learn how to: \n\nPlan and make better project decisions — understand priorities\, evaluate options\, manage risks and keep projects focused on the right outcomes.\nCommunicate beyond your technical sphere — use practical project management language and approaches to collaborate effectively with different functions and stakeholders.\nSee the bigger organizational picture — understand how projects fit into wider business priorities and how decisions are made\, while building skills that can support progression into roles beyond technical chemistry.\n\nFollowing the presentation\, attendees will have the opportunity to have their questions answered by the presenters during a 30-minute dedicated Q&A session! \n
