Whether you’re leading your first project or stepping up as a solo project manager, this workshop equips you with the skills and tools to succeed. In this interactive session, participants explore essential project management competencies for clinical research—communication, conflict resolution, critical thinking, negotiation, emotional intelligence, time management, and budgeting.
Working through a Phase II trial scenario, attendees examine the project manager’s role from both the site and sponsor/CRO perspectives. The session covers how to create and manage core project tools—project plans, timelines, budgets, RACI charts (responsible, accountable, consulted, informed), risk management plans, communication plans, and resourcing plans.
Participants collaborate in site- and sponsor/CRO-based teams, practicing how to adapt, problem-solve, and revise plans when challenges arise. They will leave with practical, hands-on experience and a toolkit to lead projects confidently—driving efficiency, fostering collaboration, and making a measurable impact in clinical research project delivery.
