Project Launch
This module was designed specifically for project teams that include representatives from different organizations or business units working together. Include this module in your project kick-off activities to give all team members a common vocabulary, shared expectations and an opportunity to build productive working relationships from the start. This module includes:
- Pre-Briefing
- Communication Match Game, which requires participants to match various common communication topics with the ideal, preferred method of delivering that information.
- Task Execution Cycle, which includes a detailed, consultative process for completing tasks efficiently and effectively and a Symptom-Diagnosis exercise to tie actions to consequences in the participants' minds.
- Problem-Solving Process, which teaches a detailed process to ensure that problems are addressed and resolved quickly.
- Debriefing to review the core concepts and to resolve any issues that have been identified in the course of the training.
Prerequisites: Works best when combined with Establish Strategic Relationships as part of an all-day Project Kick-Off event, but is effective as a standalone team activity.
Time: 2 hours
Available as a self-paced training package that can be performed in small groups of 4-5 employees or as part of an all-day Project Kick-off meeting.

What Consultants Have Said...
"Before I joined up with Consulting Stance, I had one client and was billing $60/hour. Now I have three clients at $200/hour, plus I get an extra bonus when my work makes money for them. I'm thinking of taking three months off next year. I could never have done that on my own."
--- Doug, Independent Engineering Consultant/Austin, TX
"Consulting on your own compares with working in larger organizations as an employee. The possibility, however, of hearing direct appreciation from your clients and the thrill of obtaining repeat business can be monumentally different."
--- Kevin L./Austin, TX
"The classes are fun, interactive and extremely valuable. Trial-and-error is the most expensive way to learn and I can't imagine anyone starting out in this business without your help."
