The Human Factor in Project Management
One of the biggest challenges to successful project implementation is the evolution of the project team. The challenge of taking a diverse group of individuals, with varying backgrounds and experience, from different functional areas, and placing them on a project team with a PM who has no direct authority, can severely undermine the success of any project.
In “The Human Factor in Project Management,” Kevin offers cutting-edge insights and strategies for developing world-class leadership skills, building more resonant relationships, and getting teams to commit and work together more effectively from the outset. These tools are on the leading edge of leadership strategies and human behavior, and are essential to the success of Project Managers.

How to Assure Project Success: No Wishing Required
When it comes to software implementation projects, most organizations are left wishing that things had been done differently. Industry statistics show that a large percentage of enterprise software implementations fail to deliver anticipated results ranging from missed deadlines and cost overruns to disgruntled users or unimplemented software. Even if a project is considered ‘successful’, the shear effort alone can take a toll on project team members and the organization as a whole.
Based on the insights uncovered in his book, Collaborative Intervention: How to Identify, Assess and Intervene in Troubled Business Technology and Transformation Projects, Rob Prinzo reveals his unique methodology designed to overcome the issues faced by enterprise software implementation teams.
From this interview, attendees will learn: the six critical points in every project, an easy to use methodology for conducting project assessments, best practices for developing collaborative team behavior and a working understanding of tools and techniques to build a communications-centric foundation for the entire project team – from executives to end-users.

The Power of Emotionally Intelligent Leadership
Project Managers have many challenges – unrealistic deadlines, lack of resources, constant demands and unclear stakeholders – to name a few. Every additional challenge adds more pressure.

Naming and understanding the function of these emotions, and how to deal with them, has enormous impact on communication and performance.

Culture and Collaboration in Project Management
In the execution of a project, collaboration is inevitable. Requiring a combination of skills, knowledge and resources, projects often attract numerous participants, each bringing their own cultural background to the project organization. With a focus on research data that I gathered in the Panama Canal Expansion Program, I will elaborate on cross-cultural collaboration in mega projects. The practices of collaboration that came to the fore are illustrated in the Collabyrinth and portray how project participants deal with the cultural complexity in their everyday work life.

Patton, Powell, Mandela and Moeller
Inspiration is the arousal of the mind to motivate extraordinary activity or creativity. Leaders inspire so a team can produce more than is theoretically possible. A leader inspires, but how do we know what it is when we see it, and how can a person learn to recognize and use it?
This presentation examines inspiration and examples of inspirations in all facets of our life and how these lessons can be used to improve leadership skills. Drawing from a wide range of personal expertise and continuous learning, Dave will present a grab bag of different ways inspiration can be found in our lives. Whether it is a story of inspiration or a real life example, there is a core set of values and behaviors that facilitate inspiration.
This interview will explore those values and behaviors as well as give glimpses of a grab bag of inspiration examples. You will leave this session with a better realization of how people are inspired and how you also can inspire others.
Once you register, you will be given access to the session schedule and speaker’s swag.
