Announcing... Carpe Factum Workshops
Some of you have asked me why I've been sporadic with my blog posts this summer. I'll admit; it has been a little hit and miss, but I've had a good reason.
Over the past eighteen months, I worked with the Des Moines Higher Education Collaborative to create a series of classes entitled "The Art and Science of Project Management." This was a project that had been in the works for two years prior to my coming on board. While the DMHEC is shutting down operations, those who were instrumental in getting these classes up and running wanted to see our work continue. I've had some great discussions with very insightful people who encouraged me to take this next step.
It is with immense pleasure that I officially announce the roll-out of Carpe Factum Training Workshops. Initially, all workshops will be offered locally here in the Des Moines area. Our sponsor at Iowabiz.com, Professional Solutions, has graciously allowed us to use their beautiful facilities for these workshops. We are initially offering four workshops in some of the most essential skills needed for business today:
- Human Project Management
- Technical Project Management
- Managing Office Politics
- Creativity (Applied for Professional Business Settings)
In addition, I've teamed up with some very talented individuals to deliver these workshops. Lyle Holman will be my co-instructor for both of the project management sessions. Mark Yontz is working with me on the creativity workshop. Dana Dennis is my teammate for the office politics workshop.
A special thanks to Sandy Renshaw for once again coming to my rescue with the website changes, setting up the registration page, and the Paypal link.
We're keeping the workshops affordable, focused, and real-world. Our goal is for attendees to be better able to Carpe Factum... whatever that accomplishment may be.






Local? Ugh...maybe I'll move to Des Moines...
