Course overview

Apply proven tactics, frameworks, & AI to lead high-impact projects and people.

The Problem

Most project managers are set up to fail. 58% of projects crash. $11.4 billion wasted every year.

Why?

Because 70% of the people managing projects have zero formal training. They get thrown in with no system, no tools, no roadmap — and they don’t even see failure coming until it’s too late. Meanwhile, AI is moving faster than teams can keep up. If you don’t catch up, you fall behind.

The Good News?

Project management jobs are exploding — 25% growth by 2030. The ones who get it right earn 22% more, and AI can wipe out 40% of your manual work if you know how to use it.

This course gives you the exact frameworks, tools, and AI workflows I’ve shared with corporate clients to help their top 1% project leaders deliver results faster and smarter.

You’ll set up projects to win. Lead with authority (even if you don’t have the title). Cut busywork with AI. Get stakeholders to say yes faster. You’ll walk out with systems, skills, and real artifacts that prove you can lead — and you’ll be the one teams trust, execs rely on, and companies fight to hire.

Why This Course?

You Don’t Need Theory or Textbook Scores to Succeed

Over the next 7 years, the most in-demand project managers will master just 5 critical areas — the ones top organizations are actually hiring for:

--The Fundamentals of Projects

--Leadership & Influence

--AI Workflows & Automation

--Stakeholder Management

--Mitigating Risks & Issues

These aren’t just my claims, they’re echoed by:

--PMI, "emphasizing AI fluency and leadership as future essentials"

--Salesforce & LinkedIn, "highlighting the rise of automation-savvy leaders"

--Financial Times, "citing the need for PMs who blend technology and influence"

--Asana & ProofHub, "naming project fundamentals, stakeholder mastery, and innovation as top skills"

Level Up Now with a Top-Rated Course

That’s why my course has become one of Maven’s top-rated project management programs, selected for the Maven 100 as a top business course. It’s trusted by alumni from industries like tech, healthcare, finance, education, manufacturing, and startups — with participants from companies like Google, Amazon, Tesla, Salesforce, and more.

They join because this course delivers real-world frameworks, not theory, and helps busy professionals master the skills that actually drive results.

You will:

--Boost Your Earning Potential

--Create Real Artifacts And Systems

--Master The Delivery Of Critical Projects

--Strengthen Your Leadership Presence

--Position Yourself As The Leader Teams Trust

--Learn How To Influence Stakeholders Faster

--Shift From Reactive To Proactive Management

--Develop A Clear System For Mitigating Risks

With two decades and over 80 successful projects behind me, I know exactly what drives real results, and what wastes time. Titles and certificates look impressive, but they don’t build high-impact projects. Clear frameworks do. Practical tools do. Field-tested strategies you can put to work on day one do. That’s what I deliver.

I’ve equipped more than 25,000 professionals at companies like Microsoft, Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic, and Procter & Gamble with the same proven systems I used as a COO to scale teams and execute mission-critical initiatives. Now, you have direct access to that same corporate-level training, built for impact, not theory.
