T A N D E N
Services

Tanden's stated mission is "to lead through teaching and inspiring others." We do this through effective collaboration and alignment of our primary services to meet our customers' needs. Our three service lines include:

Learning

The learning process does not end upon the receipt of a diploma or completion of a college degree. We also know that the most efficient way to learn is through hands-on experience supported by a solid foundation of fundamental principles. Tanden's Learning offerings are designed to provide your team members with basic and advanced courses in the areas of:

  • Project Management (The Project Leadership SeriesSM)
  • Leadership Development (The Effective Leader SeriesSM)
  • Career Planning (Career TrailBlazerSM)

Tanden's Learning offerings effectively combine the introduction of fundamental principles with the hands-on application of proven tools and techniques through individual and team exercises.

Our instructors are not "theorists" – they have practical, hands-on experience in their respective disciplines. They bring years of applied project management, organizational leadership, and career development experience along with teaching experience to the learning environment.

Leading


Historical perspective and our personal experiences repeatedly show us that there is a difference between a manager and a leader. We know that most leaders can be good managers, where good managers do not necessarily make good leaders.

At Tanden, we focus on developing leadership in the project delivery organization by following our own set of principles that are evident in all of our engagements:
  • Be a Leader: Get the creative best from everyone in the organization—and have them want to provide it
  • Be a Steward: Leave things in better condition that they were when we found them.
  • Be a Calming Change Agent: Help others successfully cope with uncertainty through clear communications and creative thinking.


We employ these leadership principles through our portfolio of project organizational and team leadership engagements that include:
  • The Virtual PMO
  • Portfolio Management Facilitation
  • The Project Delivery Structure and Organization


Our Leading services are designed to better align the organization's project portfolio with its strategic objectives while optimizing the allocation of its resources. In other words, we help you ensure that your people and assets are applied to the right initiatives in the right place at the right time.
