Do you find your project launch plans turning into a jumble of ideas, missed deadlines, and unclear responsibilities? In Plan Launch Tasks, you'll learn how to bring structure and predictability to any initiative without relying on a single software platform. The course begins by clarifying the core distinction between timeline‑driven approaches such as Gantt charts and flow‑oriented methods like Kanban boards, helping you choose the right perspective for each phase of work. The centerpiece is the simple yet powerful "To‑Do, Doing, Done" visual framework that leading teams use to track progress in real time. Through scenario‑based, hands‑on exercises, you will practice breaking a complex launch into discrete, measurable tasks, assigning clear owners, and setting realistic due dates. Participants also receive templates for task lists, sprint boards, and milestone maps that can be adapted to any industry or team size.
