Applying Legal Project Management
Can Be A Challenge

Skeptics are hesitant to spend a lot of time on planning and generating documentation required by traditional waterfall approaches.

How will you convince your attorneys that the effort of bringing project management to your project is worth the cost?

In this webinar you will learn about a light-weight, flexible, fast-to-implement project approach, Agile.

Many legal matters are not traditionally phased and traditional project management approaches don’t fit.

By adding Agile techniques and tools to your tool box you can manage legal projects with a greater level of success.

Note: You do have to be a PMI® member to register for this opportunity.

Presented by: Human Capital Institute
Webinar Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 Category C PDU – Free PDU

Is Your Team Engaged?

Employee engagement is mission critical to every organization. However, it’s a constant struggle to keep employees excited and focused on the job.

If your employees aren’t engaged at work and in their work, they’re not only costing the company money but also damaging the company culture.

Putting a knowledge base tool front and center in your engagement program provides critical benefits to individual employees and the entire organization alike. How can you get your employees reconnected and back on the bandwagon?

The webinar will answer these questions:

  1. What is a knowledge base? What are the most important things I should look for in a knowledge base?
  2. What measurable benefits do knowledge base tools bring to an organization?
  3. Exactly how can a knowledge base improve employee engagement?
  4. How do I get executive sponsorship and team members excited about yet another thing to do?
