Habiba Islam: Project management 101

In this workshop, Habiba Islam gives a run-down of the essentials of project management. The workshop covers the responsibilities of project managers, as well as standard tools and methodologies that can be used for large projects or scaled down for smaller projects. This video will be particularly useful for people interested in operations roles.
