A department manager is asked to lead a digital transformation project without formal training. Three months in, deadlines are missed, the budget is blown, and stakeholders are frustrated. Sound familiar?
In 2022, a manufacturing company in Penang assigned its IT upgrade to an internal team leader with no project management background.

Vendor misalignment caused RM90,000 in rework
The project team missed three major milestones
After the incident, all leads were enrolled in a foundational project management workshop, which significantly improved future delivery success

Understand roles, documents, and stakeholder expectations
