Project Management for Leaders: How to Track Work Without Drowning in Tasks
Are you juggling multiple projects, managing competing priorities, or leading across several teams or locations? In Day 7 of The 12 Days of Leadership, we’re breaking down simple project management systems for leaders, especially if you don’t have a PMP certification or a formal operations background.
If you’ve ever said…
✔ “I’m constantly putting out fires.”
✔ “I can’t keep track of everything.”
✔ “I need better project management skills.”
✔ “I want a system I can actually stick with.”
…this episode is for you.
In today’s episode, Kayla teaches you how to build a project dashboard, organize your work using a Kanban board, and track progress without getting stuck in the weeds. You’ll learn how to create clarity around what’s active, what’s waiting, and what’s complete — so you can focus on the strategic work that moves your organization forward.
This training is perfect for new managers, directors, healthcare leaders, project managers, and anyone who wants better task management and prioritization skills.
⭐ What You’ll LearnHow leaders can use project management tools without feeling overwhelmed
Why Kanban is the simplest way to organize tasks and workflows
How to track progress when you oversee multiple teams or projects
A leadership system for prioritizing work and staying out of the weeds
How to stop juggling everything and start leading strategically
