description: Participants learn how to lead projects with confidence and discipline — from drawing board to finished products. The course introduces the nuts and bolts of planning, scheduling, budgeting, and communication. Participants will learn how to stay on top of deadlines and expenses, ways to rebound quickly from surprises and setbacks, and how to get the best from people who don't normally report to you. Participants will learn the imperative questions to ask before beginning a project — and learn how to get the information that will help them focus on what is expected, by when, and at what cost. Participants practice using the planning and scheduling tools that professional project managers use (GANTT charts, the critical path method, work breakdown structures, project management software, and others). This course teaches participants how to discover the best places to find the people they will need, how to articulate the kind of skills, attitudes, and work habits they are looking for, and ways to pry the people they want from their own work, maybe even from a reluctant boss. Participants learn to implement the controls and safety nets they need to establish early on in the project, and they learn how to set (and meet) milestones, gain confidence to negotiate for new deadlines if necessary, motivate a team that's losing interest, and determine what to do when plans change midstream — or when the "Murphy factor" hits your project in a big way.

These reflections are designed to help you grow in self-awareness, resilience, communication, and relational leadership. 1. Pre-Lead Week Reflection (Beginning of the Week) Write a 1-page reflection before you attend any sessions. In your response, address the following: What strengths do you currently bring to your personal relationships and leadership roles? Where do you feel less confident (for example: communication, managing stress, or self-doubt)? What is one personal goal you hope to develop through these sessions? 2. Session Reflections (During the Week, Four Session Reflections Minimum) Attend a minimum of four sessions. After each session, write a short reflection (5–7 sentences) that includes: Your biggest takeaway from the presentation. How the ideas connect to your own experiences or challenges. One small action you can take to apply the insight this week. 3. Post-Lead Week Reflection (End of the Week) Write a 2–3 page reflection that looks back on your personal and interpersonal development over the course of the week. Include two citations from a book or journal in your reflection. In your response, consider: How have your perspectives on yourself and your relationships with others changed? Which sessions impacted you most, and why? Did you make progress toward the personal goal you set at the beginning of the week? How does your progress align with existing literature on leadership and personal development? Looking ahead, how will you continue to strengthen your intrapersonal and interpersonal leadership skills during your time at OSU?
