Team Coaching: A Game Changer for Your Success

It’s common knowledge that coaching can help individuals improve skills, gain confidence and successfully meet objectives.

But when it comes to coaching teams, and in particular project teams, there is a significant added value that augments the overall success of the project itself.

Team coaching builds trust among members, fosters collaboration and teaches the group how to be proactive in problem solving and risk resolution

Using real-life examples, this webinar explores:

  • Why team coaching matters in project management
  • The challenges of team coaching and how to overcome them
  • The benefits of team coaching for both the members and the project
  • How to use and apply coaching on a project team

We will highlight various team models, the pros and cons of each, and then how to apply coaching with each type to ensure your next project is a team success.

Online Webinar – Recorded Jul 9 2019
Activity Type:  Education – Online or Digital Media 1 PDU – Free

2018 is behind us but there’s a lot we can learn from it:

  • Who were the winningest vendors in 2018?
  • Which vendors outperformed their peers and helped reshape markets?
  • Are they disruptors or will disruption come for a different set of vendors?

2019 and beyond will be defined by a wave of additional disruptions and for the first time, IT spending on new technology, emerging business needs and new imperatives will not be funded by incremental spending.

There are areas of spending that are no longer increasing or declining. This money can now be funneled into new markets without pushing IT spending increases into double digit growth.

In this webinar, John-David Lovelock, (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Distinguished VP Analyst, Mark McDonald (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner  Vice President & Fellow, Daryl C. Plummer, (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Managing VP & Gartner Fellow, & Bill Ray Gartner (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Sr Director Analyst  cover the world’s IT spending forecast, delve into the new technologies that are driving IT spending and the vendors that are changing the IT landscape.

Discussion Topics:

  • Where Gartner sees IT spending growth in 2017 and through 2023
  • The disruptive technology that is changing global spending patterns
  • The winningest vendors from 2018 that are changing the IT vendor landscape
