PM Skills® Simulation: Cuff-It Clothing
with MindEdge Instructor
In this simulation, you'll act as a project consultant helping a small company quickly assimilate new employees into their operations. The simulation, designed for adult learners with some organizational relationship experience, will ask you to make decisions as you confront common interpersonal problems. Each decision you make will include tradeoffs that will increase satisfaction in some areas but may hinder others—your job will be to select the option that best benefits the organization.
As you make your choices, an adaptive scoreboard will reflect the impact of those choices on organizational success. Your goal will be to optimize your score across six organizational factors—change management, communication, conflict management, critical thinking/decision making, leadership, and team development—and use the results of your actions to inform subsequent simulation decisions.

PM Skills®: Embracing Risk and Uncertainty
with MindEdge Instructor
In many organizations, risk and uncertainty are seen as threats that must be planned for, controlled, and (if possible) eliminated entirely. But, are risk and uncertainty inherently bad? Couldn't they be opportunities to reimagine things and create a powerful new approach?
This self-paced, fully online course will help you view risk and uncertainty as a possibility instead of a danger. You'll see uncertainty as a way to examine and improve on existing conditions, opening up new possibilities or pathways that will help you achieve your goals. And for those risks that truly are threats, you'll develop a risk mitigation approach that will help you address problems and potentially uncover skills and abilities you can transfer to other areas of work to improve outcomes and results.
