Why Should You Attend

Why invest in expensive project management software when you can transform a tool you already rely on daily—Microsoft Outlook—into a powerful project management solution?
Microsoft Project and other high-cost project management tools can be overwhelming and unnecessary for many professionals. Outlook offers a simpler, more intuitive alternative. This webinar will teach you how to create clear timelines, assign responsibilities, and track progress—all within a familiar interface. Simplified workflows lead to less stress and more time spent on actual work rather than managing the work.

In the planning and execution phase of projects, Microsoft Outlook is a valid and valuable tool. This webinar will show you how to optimize Outlook’s existing features, such as Tasks, Calendars, and Categories, to streamline your project management process. Save time, money, and the hassle of learning complex new software while maximizing the tools you already know.

The use of the meticulous planning and execution principles in this webinar will get team members on the same wavelength, channel their energy, and keep them on track to finish on time.

Topic Background

Management guru, Tom Peters, asked, “How does a major project get to be a year late?” Then he answered his own question: “One day at a time.”

Completing projects by the required deadline is a challenge for most project managers. The deadline is often put in jeopardy at the very beginning of the assignment because managers spin their wheels getting the project organized and assignments made to the right team member.

This is like throwing money down the drain. In contrast, you can put money in your pocket if you study and understand the project management features of Microsoft Outlook. There may be no need to purchase additional, expensive project management software.
