AI-Enhanced Project Management & Leadership Accelerator

4 Weeks

·

Cohort-based Course

Lead projects like the Top 1% using the proven management frameworks, AI-enhanced workflows, and advanced stakeholder management.

I've Trained Over 15,000 Leaders At:

Microsoft
McKesson
Robert Half
Medtronic
Johnson & Johnson

Course overview

Become a Top Tier Project Leader - learn strategies that the top 1% of PMs know.

Cohort 4 is currently in session.

Cohort 5 enrollment is open and begins August 11th.


This course bridges real-world leadership, AI integration, and results-driven project management—delivering hands-on, strategic skills that other PM, AI, and PMP prep courses miss.


No time off work required. Just 3 hours spread across each week to get the full benefit of this course.


THE PROBLEM


58% of projects fail.

→ $11.4B is lost every year.

→ Most teams don’t realize it until it’s too late.


70% of professionals managing projects?

→ They’ve had zero formal training.

→ They’re thrown into the role without support.

→ No system. No tools. No roadmap.


So what happens?

→ Calendars are full, but nothing moves.

→ Meetings go in circles with no outcomes.

→ Docs are written, but never used.

→ Tasks are assigned, but not owned.

→ Everyone’s busy—but the results are chaotic.

→ Projects stall. Teams burn out. Budgets vanish.


WHY THIS HAPPENS


The root cause isn’t lack of effort.


It’s checkbox culture.

→ We confuse motion with progress.

→ We reward busyness over clarity.

→ And we skip straight to execution

→ Without alignment, expectations, or direction.


THE OPPORTUNITY


Project management is booming.


→ Job growth is expected to hit 25% by 2030.

→ Professionals with these skills earn 22% more.

→ And AI tools now cut manual work by up to 40%.


Those who adapt will rise fast.

The rest will be left behind.


MY SOLUTION


That's why I created the AI-Enhanced Project Management Accelerator. A 4-week hands-on program to help you lead with clarity, not chaos. No fluff. No filler. Just the system that works.


After 20 years of teaching 25,000+ professionals and leading 80+ projects, I’ve learned one thing: people managing projects often don’t need to read an entire book—they need to strengthen these 4 core areas.


That’s why, for the past 3 years, I’ve focused on helping my corporate training clients build these key skills. Now, it’s available to you—whether as an individual or for your team.


This course is built around a step-by-step transformation from checkbox culture to results-driven leadership. It’s not a one-size-fits-all program but a guided journey where each week tackles a real-world core skill:


➡️ Fundamentals and Frameworks (Week 1)

➡️ People & Team leadership (Week 2)

➡️ Integrating AI to automate workflows (Week 3)

➡️ Stakeholder Management (Week 4)


If you can strengthen your abilities in these 5 areas, your project management success will surpass even those who have a degree, PMP certification, or other credentials. You’ll be in the top tier of project managers who can consistently deliver successful outcomes.


THE COURSE


This 4-week, hands-on program is built for action—no fluff, just real results.


You’ll get:


→ Live weekly module presentations

→ Live Q/A sessions

→ Live Expert Led Masterclasses

→ Focused training modules (self-paced)

→ Guided projects to practice your new skills

→ AI tool skills to future-proof your projects

→ Direct access to the instructor

→ Personal feedback every step of the way

→ Access to Experts of Practice


Week 1: Fundamentals and Mindset

First, you’ll build the essential foundation for modern PM success. Master the Modern PM Mindset and apply the MENTIS Framework to drive results. Learn to make fast decisions, lead change confidently, and align your team around purpose. Define scope, build roadmaps, and run effective kickoffs. Develop critical soft skills and avoid common pitfalls. By week’s end, you’ll be ready to lead with clarity and impact.


Week 2: Leading People and Projects with Confidence

With your mindset set and tools in place, it’s time to step up as a leader. This week is all about building trust, influencing teams, and handling tough situations confidently. You’ll learn to navigate uncertainty, adapt your style, create a collaborative culture, and turn challenges into opportunities—all while balancing leadership and execution.


Week 3: Using AI for Smarter Project Management

Then, we’ll dive into essential AI tools for project management, including Asana AI, Zapier, Clickup, Notion, Gamma, and Tango. You’ll learn to automate assignments, agendas, and reports, detect risks before they escalate, reduce manual work with AI workflows, simplify documentation with smart tools, and apply plug-and-play systems to real projects for maximum efficiency.


Week 4: Project Strategic Alignment & Stakeholder Influence

After AI week, you’ll learn how to win over even the toughest stakeholders. By mastering the art of challenging assumptions, influencing key decision-makers, and communicating with clarity, you’ll build trust fast and inspire action. These skills will help you align teams, overcome resistance, and lead projects to success, no matter who’s in the room.
