They help you plan, organize, execute, and evaluate complex tasks and goals, as well as collaborate with others effectively. However, project management is not a fixed set of abilities that you either have or don't have. It is a dynamic and evolving skill that you can improve with practice, feedback, and reflection.

1 Assess your strengths and weaknesses

Before you can improve your project management skills, you need to know where you stand and what areas you need to work on. You can use various tools and methods to assess your current level of competence, such as self-evaluation questionnaires, feedback surveys, performance reviews, or portfolios. You can also ask for input from your peers, mentors, supervisors, or clients. Based on your assessment, you can identify your strengths and weaknesses, and set realistic and specific goals for improvement.

Best is to assess if participants hold the minimum of capabilites to participate in a project environment. If concepts such as: critical path analysis, critical success factors are missing, understanding of implemented software, then (re(training is required before project participation.

Assessing your strengths and your weaknesses will help you identify the gaps and take the right steps to close those gaps. It is also important to do this at least twice a year because the field of project management is rapidly evolving and your current skills can quickly become redundant.

Un outil comme le SWOT est un excellent moyen de faire le bilan de son travail. Mais ce n'est qu'un outil en soi, il faut le faire avec un maximum de franchise et d'honnêteté intellectuelle, vis à vis de soi et de son impact. Une démarche d'évaluation par les étudiants permettrait de donner un bon point de départ à cette analyse

2 Learn from best practices

One of the best ways to improve your project management skills is to learn from the experts and adopt their best practices. You can find plenty of resources and examples of successful project management in higher education, such as books, articles, podcasts, blogs, webinars, or courses. You can also join professional networks and communities of practice, where you can exchange ideas, tips, and experiences with other project managers in your field. By learning from best practices, you can discover new strategies, techniques, and tools that can help you manage your projects more efficiently and effectively.

3 Apply the project management cycle

The project management cycle is a framework that guides you through the four main phases of any project: initiation, planning, execution, and closure. By applying this cycle to your projects, you can ensure that you follow a systematic and consistent process that covers all the key aspects and tasks of project management. For example, in the initiation phase, you can define the scope, objectives, and deliverables of your project; in the planning phase, you can create a detailed schedule, budget, and risk management plan; in the execution phase, you can monitor and control the progress and quality of your project; and in the closure phase, you can evaluate the outcomes and lessons learned from your project.

Besides the project cycle it is important that tasks are performed with a closed loop concept such as Shewart/Demming PDCA cycle. Each subtask should not fall victim to undetected errors that lead to compounding issues and at some point unavoidable project failure.

4 Use appropriate tools and technology

Another way to improve your project management skills is to use appropriate tools and technology that can facilitate and support your work. There are many software applications and platforms that can help you with various aspects of project management, such as task management, communication, collaboration, documentation, reporting, or analysis. For example, you can use tools like Asana, Trello, or Basecamp to organize and track your tasks and deadlines; tools like Zoom, Slack, or Google Workspace to communicate and collaborate with your team members; tools like Dropbox, Evernote, or Google Drive to store and share your files and documents; or tools like Excel, SPSS, or Tableau to analyze and visualize your data.

To improve your project management skills you need to automate most of the repeated tasks you are doing. Tools help us work more efficiently, effectively, and safely. They enable us to perform tasks that would be difficult or impossible without them. Some of the most popular tools are Calendar to Schedule about meets, Microsoft Todo and Notion for taking notes and managing tasks, Slack or Google Workspace to communicate with the team mates and project management tools like ProffHub, Monday.com, Zoho projects, AbipraviProjects, etc.. can also be used.

5 Reflect and improve continuously

Finally, one of the most important ways to improve your project management skills is to reflect and improve continuously. Project management is not a one-time activity, but a continuous learning process that requires you to evaluate your performance, identify your challenges, and seek feedback and improvement opportunities. You can use various methods and tools to reflect and improve continuously, such as journals, logs, checklists, or templates. You can also seek feedback and guidance from your mentors, coaches, or peers, who can offer you constructive criticism and suggestions. By reflecting and improving continuously, you can enhance your project management skills and achieve your goals more effectively and efficiently.

Knowledge management is about documented and tacit knowledge. The first may be committed to the paper archives for later retrieval, the later is caught inside people, and requires experienced employees to be paired with less experienced workers.

L'amélioration continue et l'état d'esprit de croissance sont indispensable pour s'épanouir professionnellement. Il ne faut pas se reposer sur ses acquis et toujours envisager d'autres points de vues, d'autres positions, ce qui ne veut pas dire que l'on doit systématiquement être d'accord mais se familiariser avec une opinion divergente permettra une plus grande ouverture d'esprit, un exercice d'empathie et une adaptation accrue
