Another great video! I Also have a couple video requests (but it's up to you wether you want to make them): 1.Advantages and disadvantages of the project tools eg. gantt chart, pert chart, wbs, cpm 2. Roles of stakeholders within a project eg. executive sponsor, project sponsor, project team members Once again its up to you but it would really help me and others i believe You may already have made videos on these topics, and if you have, could you please comment what names the videos are under! Thank you.
Thank you, Cameron. Both great ideas. I tend to plan a long way ahead (as you'd expect from a Project manager!) But I'll add them to my list of ideas. Watch this space!

Doctor thank, you very much for your effort and outstanding work. I had a question, the Workstream leader can be considered equivalent to the Integration manager? Thanks for your kind answer
You're welcome. A workstream leader is a different role from that of an integration manager. So these are not equivalent. However, you may choose to make integration a workstream. In which case, the integration manager would be the w/s leader for that workstream!
I have covered aspects of PRINCE2 on this channel and also on my blog: onlinepmcourses.com/project-management-articles/ and onlinepmcourses.com/project-management-certification-programs/study-prince2/ I will consider a webinar on the topic, but am not able to offer formal PRINCE2 training.
Thank you - I guess you'll need to do some work, but maybe this video will help you: What is Project Management? ruclips.net/video/XT-wb6b64_E/видео.html
The point here is that there is always a lot of administration and simple details to tidy up at the end of a project. It's not fun, but it is necessary. If you have a specific question, reply to this and I will try to answer it for you.
This video collates a four video series into one single intro to PM - a mini-course all on its own!
