Reviews of IPI's Interpersonal Project Management Skills for the Life Sciences Industries training course


I found this training very useful. I specifically liked the topics related to emotional intelligence and communication, understanding each other to improve collaboration and also the fact that it was not directed toward project management tools but very people-oriented and related to communication techniques and stakeholder management from a soft skills point of view..
