RedVector Online Education for Design and Construction

The evolution to senior management requires both a broad range of skills, including marketing, financial management and leadership, and great expertise within each area. The leader who has excelled while dealing directly with projects and design issues must now learn to deal indirectly with people issues and leadership challenges. This course series developed by PSMJ Resources, Inc. and offered through RedVector.com in its entirety, tutors the newly minted executive in every aspect of these new skills, including strategy, team development, financial management, and more.

This 1-hour interactive online course is the first chapter of the “From Project Manager to Principal” course series, and explores the tools each business person needs to develop into a successful manager.  Concepts such as transitioning from project developer to a management position, behavior changes, self evaluation and leadership qualities are discussed.
