This is the third and final webinar in the Afterburner Flawless Execution series.

Although it is not a prerequisite to participate in this session, be sure to view the first webinars in this series, 

  1. The Flawless Execution Advantage for Project Managers and
  2.  How to Identify Your Plan is at Risk: Managing Project Risk with Flawless Execution.

What do you do once your project comes to an end?

When projects end in success, we often high-five and move on to the next project or task.

This may be successful in the short run, but long-term, it is critical to pause after every one of your projects for a Debrief.

In Flawless Execution, the Debrief is where the root causes of success and failure are identified.

Joel Neeb (LinkedIn profile) will teach you how to conduct a structured Debrief to assure your team can scale successes and eliminate the failures that may have occurred during the project.

Agile project management is a game changer, especially for IT project managers.

That is because, typically, when agile is embraced by an organization, the role of project manager is de-emphasized in favor of self-organizing teams, and large strategic projects are decomposed in favor of shorter more frequent releases.

The business Project Management Office typically handles the strategic efforts, and the IT organization pivots to improving infrastructure and processes for managing code releases into environments.

So, what do these shifts mean for the IT project manager and their career path?

Using research and practical experience, this webinar introduces the agile concepts that most affect IT project managers and their options moving forward.

Main learning points include: 

  • Agile concepts in relation to project management processes
  • The shift from IT project manager to scrum master or product owner or subject matter expert.
  • Relationship between scrum master and product owner
  • New skills to succeed in the agile universe with an emphasis on:
    • Facilitator: Coaching and team development
    • Change manager: Emphasis on flexibility
    • Innovation cheerleader
    • Business story writer and backlog management

Presenter: Bonnie Cooper (LinkedIn profile), PMP®, Instructo for Corporate Education Group, is a twenty-year information technology professional. In her current role as the Program Director for the Massachusetts Medical Society’s (MMS) Corporate IT Program Office, Bonnie is responsible for coordinating the efforts of project teams, overseeing the implementation of project standards, managing the corporate IT strategic plan, and leading the program to re-engineer the membership platform for MMS.

According to research, we make up our minds about others after seeing their faces for just milliseconds.

And these instincts take place when we’re hiring.

  • Do we like her?
  • Trust him?
  • Or think this person is competent?

These snap judgments are almost always wrong and may play big role in many poor hiring decisions.

Alexander Todorov’s cutting-edge research and latest book explores the scientific story behind first impressions.

His research has examined how politicians who look more competent are more likely to win elections.

First impressions are based on familiarity and stereotypes of others we have seen before.

“Halo effects” make us think we can understand strangers from their faces.

This interactive webinar will help you recognize the biases that may impact your decisions.

Explore your perceptions with computer-generated faces morphed to show common features often associated with personality traits.

Learn:

  • The (mis)accuracy of first impressions
  • How face signals may be giving you a false impression
  • The subtle cues or unconscious biases that may impact your hiring decisions

Join Alexander T. Todorov, Ph.D. Professor & Associate Chair, Department of Psychology, Princeton University & Ray Bixler President & CEO, SkillSurvey, Inc. and understand the influences that can (Mis)lead your hiring decisions.

Note: The first 200 registrants will receive a complimentary copy (hard-cover or e-version) of Alex Todorov’s latest book Face Value: The Irresistible Influence of First Impressions complimentary of SkillSurvey.

Note: SHRM has pre-approved this webcast for 1 Professional Development Credits (PDCs) towards SHRM-CP℠ or SHRM-SCP℠ Certifications.
