Students from our Business Administration & Economics Department had the opportunity to attend a very interesting guest lecture on Project Management by Ms Agapi-Chrysi Kyrtsidou, Senior Associate Project Analyst at Pfizer and CITY College alumna.
In the lecture, Ms.Kyrtsidou walked the students through the steps of managing multiple parallel work projects, including the secrets of workflow optimization, team management, task assignment, real-time team collaboration analysis, and process improvement.
She also presented the advantages and disadvantages of using the Waterfall and Scrum methodologies in Project Management, along with the Scrum development process and roles, the Agile philosophy, and the various Project Management software available in the market.
In addition to the lecture topic, students were also interested to know of Ms. Kyrtsidou's educational background and career development at Deloitte and Pfizer.
The guest lecture took place in the context of the 'Decision Making with IT' unit, taught by Dr. Andrew Salisbury and was supported by our Career, Employability and Enterprise Centre.
