A three-week project implementation workshop put on jointly by the Government of
St. Lucia and the Caribbean Development Bank came to a successful end on Friday
at the Bay Gardens Hotel. The workshop, which was aimed at increasing the rate
at which governmental projects are implemented, was deemed an unqualified
success by the facilitator, Herman Grant of the Caribbean Development Bank, who
was very impressed with the level of participation and enthusiasm. He said that
“… people worked very hard…and in terms of understanding all the
techniques etc. and working in groups, I thought it was fantastic”. Mr.
Grant hoped that participants did not see the workshop as an academic exercise
but that they would use the project management strategies they have learned to
improve productivity in the work environment. In fact, he said, the Caribbean
Development Bank would be returning soon to monitor how well the participants
have incorporated their new knowledge into the workplace. This monitoring
exercise would help the bank to evaluate the programme and its effectiveness in
changing workers’ attitudes and performance. |
