You'll also explore the critical path method (CPM), where we'll break down how to identify the tasks that are crucial to project completion, ensuring you know where to focus your efforts for timely delivery.

Additionally, we’ll guide you through prioritising tasks based on their urgency and importance, helping you manage competing demands and avoid bottlenecks. Risk management will be another key focus.
