Interview with Jan Tjørnemark and Gert Thomsen, Project management instructors at CPH WEST
The use of RISMAexecution in project management courses
How did the students embrace RISMAexecution?
"It is easy to work with and everyone finds it well structured. In the management of our courses it is a big plus that everything is available and organized the same place. The fact that the system is frequently used without problems is in itself very positive. The students would give us a clear message, if things did not work as intended. "
How does RISMAexecution impact the teaching?
”RISMAexecution structures all paperwork and provides the necessary documentation in the process. It is a great educational tool that has raised the level of education. For example, the way that we communicate is quite different now, because of RISMAexecution. We do not have to return to previous discussions, as it is documented. One of the big advantages of the tool is clearly the strengthening of communication in general and in the actual project development. "
Have RISMAexecution had any other effect? "Our way of working has changed in several ways. In the groups they are all using RISMAexecution as meeting tool where it is possible to convert decisions into action plans immediately. Now there is no doubt about what was decided at meetings. It creates agreed conditions, which strengthens the progress of the course and minimizes downtime. With RISMAexecution we now have an effective teaching tool. " Can students use RISMA execution at their work? "With the reception and the feedback we receive, there should be good opportunities. We are actually surprised that the participants so soon have taken it to heart. But the very positive reception is maybe not so surprising. RISMAexecution is simple, structured and very easy to use. Some students feel that the project management tools they have in their company is too comprehensive and complicated to use, so they are not used as intended. It is actually the tool that control the actions and not vice versa. " Where is your focus prospectively?
"It's not that we all have to be project managers, but to become better at running projects. We must avoid to get lost in details about how projects are managed, but instead keep a sharp focus on how projects can succeed. In that perspective RISMAexecution is a very big help. "
