A Guide to Overcoming Organizational Politics on Your Project

Rick Morris will bring to life true issues and solutions which help Project Managers avoid the games we are forced to play in our projects.

By providing real world advice, Rick will help you learn and apply the proper techniques which will immediately impact your projects.

Project Managers have the unique ability to find shortcuts or workarounds in dealing with projects, sponsors, and stakeholders. However, in order to overcome the games in projects, all project managers must be able to influence without authority, stop end rounding projects and really focus on the basics that assure your success. Let Rick help you assure organizational politics never stifle your ability to effectively manage projects.
