Ask what you could do, not what you should.
Team training and 121 coaching with impact
Changing your mindset from should to could is a simple shift that can significantly impact the success of your projects and the teams that work on them.
The should approach often follows the same path, which results in the same project challenges and frustrations, but "What could you do?" is a simple question that allows you to take a step back and make changes that have an impact.

Client Reviews
We’ve completed three workshops with Ben at PPM Academy and are eager to schedule another – that says it all!
My team frequently mentions how outstanding the workshops were, often calling them the best courses they’ve ever attended.
Ben has a remarkable ability to facilitate discussions, keeping participants on topic while drawing out their best insights.
As a result of these workshops, we’ve developed roadmaps for each department in our company and made significant progress over the past few months.
Stuart Barr
The training offered a strong, clear framework for Project Management and really brought me back to the fundamentals.
It served as the perfect reset, helping me refocus on core principles and best practices.
As a result, I was able to refine internal processes, especially valuable since my fellow PM also attended the course, and adopt a more strategic mindset around time and task management.
Sasha Wallen
My personal goal from the training was to reset some potential bad habits I may have collected along my Project Management career, and counter them with some new techniques, tips and methods.
I also wanted to learn something new, and meet new people.
The training was fantastic, it met my goal and exceeded expectations. I've learnt new techniques that I have already put into practice, and I have also shared the knowledge with my colleagues when navigating a recent challenge.
Chris Turner
I loved working with Ben! We started working together at a point in my career when I was at a crossroads and looking for new opportunities.
He helped me during that process to update my CV and coached me through prep for interviews.
Once I landed my next role, he mentored me as I transitioned into a new leadership position and we worked together to hone core key skills which I knew needed polishing in my new role.
Ben is a fountain of knowledge and has many years and a wealth of experience in Project Management and Leadership - so his advice and support was completely invaluable.
Operations Director
The weekly group Q&A’s were really valuable.
They deepened the understanding of the content, helped me clarify things and learn from the questions of others.
Plus it was a great way to keep me accountable to staying up to date with the lessons!
Graham Bennett
The benefits of completing the course are phenomenal, not only do PMs get the tools they need to give themselves a performance upgrade, they also get included into a great community of project managers at all levels.
Kamal Joshi
Ben distills his extensive experience into practical advice, emphasising core soft skills over complex frameworks.
I've picked up several valuable insights on bettering how I manage my time, team, and projects.
Project managers seeking self-improvement would greatly benefit from Ben's training

Over the past 5-weeks, I’ve played an active role in the first cohort of Project Managers on the program:
“How to Become a High-Performing Project Manager” led by Ben Willmott ⭐️
It's been a brilliant way to level-up in my current role as well as take away actionable tips to develop the team at Born Social I'm leading
