Executives and managers get excited about transformation.

Whether that’s about developing a digital strategy, championing improvements or finding efficiencies, change efforts abound. The promises made are significant, and the investments are large as well.

Every change effort succeeds or fails, however, based on the support of people.

Transformation is not abstract. Change does not happen in a vacuum. Every successful transition fundamentally depends on one thing: encouraging, persuading and supporting people to change their behaviour.

It doesn’t matter how good the process, how cutting edge the technology or how rational the reason for making change in the first place. If people don’t see the wisdom and benefit of working in a different way, it won’t happen.

In this webinar, Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management explores what it takes to genuinely build an effective case for change, and to follow through in actually getting traction in your transformation efforts.

Mark explores the challenges associated with traditional change efforts, and what needs to happen if change is truly embraced. More specifically, he identifies the strategies that are necessary to define, communicate and sustain any change effort if it is going to be successful.

Explore the strategies that required to make your transformation successful. Mark might just change how you think about change!

Underperformance is a common threat to megaproject managers and the track record of cost and time overruns in these projects is well documented.

While front end planning is important, not all events and scenarios can be foreseen when the project can take several years to complete and may involve many companies and stakeholders.

In our research we find that the capacity to adapt to this uncertainty during the life of the project is crucial for megaproject performance but it is often overlooked as a capability. Using a case study of the construction of a US$20 billion dollar project we show that project leaders play an important role in recognizing when a plan needs to change and then navigating the path onto a new project plan without disrupting the delivery of the project.

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

The Project Management Institute (PMI) has published the 6th edition of A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK^® Guide) and a companion guide dedicated to agile practices.

The impetus?

According to the PMI 2017 Pulse of the Profession^® report, a full 71% of organizations say they are using agile approaches for their projects sometimes, often, or always. And yet, for many practitioners the adoption of agile practices often means a diminished role for the project manager.

Join Bonnie Cooper in this webinar to explore the agile infusion in the PMBOK^® Guide and the companion Agile Practice Guide, as well, and the reality of trying to integrate traditional project management and incremental, adaptive development practices.

Learning goals:

• Review of the PMBOK Guide – Sixth Edition changes and Agile Practice Guide
• Discuss what it means to be an agile project manager
• Discuss the reality of the integration between traditional project management and agile development practices
