So you’ve been assigned a complex,
poorly defined project concept
So now what?

Nothing is worse (or better) for a senior project manager or analyst than being handed a project that is: strategic, very large, and way outside your comfort zone in complexity.

These projects will sometimes roll around the halls of big companies for months while they struggle to gain sufficient momentum and clarity to really move forward with a sense of purpose and direction.

  • Let’s say one of these career-bruisers/-builders is yours?
  • What do you do next?

This session is about the tactics of early-stage project intake and clarification – getting clarity efficiently.

Learning objectives:

  1. Inside the project intake process – why is intake so dysfunctional?
  2. The action plan – simple steps that drive project clarity and milestones that deliver benefit.
  3. Targeted result – time tested deliverables that work

Honest, open feedback and regular communication are the backbone of success in any company, especially a fast growing one.

But there are many challenges to establishing a culture that encourages and rewards honesty in what can be difficult conversations.

  1. Get it right and this one skill can transform how managers engage with direct reports, influencing the overall culture of your company.
  2. Fail to address it, and your company could suffer from a toxic work environment, unaddressed bad behavior, and a lower quality of work.

Join Keegan Walden (LinkedIn profile), Ph.D., Co-Founder and COO of Torch, as he discusses the why feedback can be difficult to solicit and give, and how to establish a healthy culture that encourages it.

Learn:

  • What a healthy feedback culture looks like and how to implement one in your organization
  • The role of trust in establishing a healthier, more natural approach to feedback and hard conversations
  • How the generosity gap in evaluating others can impact your company.
  • What happens when you avoid giving hard feedback and the one thing you need to get right in order to overcome this barrier.
