This humorous, highly interactive webcast will delve deeply into the awkward, unnatural boss-subordinate relationship and help you to manage even the scariest relationship.

Most people leave the magic of what could be a career-changing relationship with their boss untapped.

This program starts with a simple concept: “Your boss is just an imperfect human being, doing the best she can… just like you.”

What you will learn:

  • Why the boss-subordinate relationship is so complex
  • The biggest career mistake you can make
  • How to get your boss to trust you
  • 8 questions every employee should ask their boss
  • How to persuade your boss
  • How to give your boss bad news
  • How to deal with a moody boss
  • How to find out where you stand with your boss and his boss

Projects are the mechanism to realize business strategy, create competitive advantage and achieve organizational transformation.

Important stuff, but most often, projects are being done in addition to ongoing business operations with constrained resources.

Therefore success is dependent on getting the right resources, spending your budget wisely, and keeping people focused and motivated to execute.

Warning signs that a project is headed to failure include missed deadlines, confusion, conflict and churning. All this can contribute to project manager and team burnout.

Effective project managers look for these early warning signs of failure and burnout so they can take corrective actions, but more importantly, they proactively work to avoid them.

In this webinar you will learn tips and techniques to:

  • Cultivate a healthy environment for your project, your team, and yourself
  • Create best practices you can rely on to drive the project forward
  • Leverage relationships to support and motivate

However, before jumping onto the internet, employers need to be aware of potential pitfalls.

What might seem like a strategic use of social media may be a fast track to trouble.

And how does video play into this?

Can an employer safely use video interviewing as part of their candidate screening without worry?

This session will explore the legal and other issues a company should consider when evaluating social media, video interviewing, and other hot trends in information collection pre-hire.
