This workshop
explores what a matrix organization is, the advantages and
disadvantages of it, as well as the impact of trying to successfully
manage projects and teams in a matrix. The matrix emphasis is on
sharing expert/specialist resources across projects that may,
themselves, have shared leadership between project management and
functional management. Because of this, for a matrix organization to
be successful, it must emphasize team, collaboration, relationships,
accountability and shared systems and processes.
The ability to be proactive and
act independently, while still maintaining the ability to act as a
team, is important. This course introduces several tools and
techniques for matrix team management, influencing without
authority, for managing at different levels within the organization,
