When you think of animation, do you think of flying bullets and spiraling headlines?
Many people do, unfortunately, and so animation suffers a bad reputation. In fact, one of your best opportunities to shine as a content creator and presenter is through smart, effective, and appropriate use of animation and in this hour, we’ll explore exactly what that means.
Rick will run the gamut from basic animation through advanced techniques, and of course, explore Morph, the dynamic first cousin to Animation.

Online Webinar – Recorded October 11th, 2022 Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media 1 PDU – Free Provider: Training Magazine Network
As a leader, you’re barraged with problems every day, and sometimes it’s easier to take the path of least resistance.
You don’t speak up because it might rock the boat. You procrastinate on a decision or don’t try that new idea because you’re afraid of failure. Or, you don’t invite feedback because you might not like what you hear.
In these moments, you’re missing opportunities, you’re wasting money, and you’re eroding your team members’ trust.
Building your reputation as a courageous leader doesn’t necessarily mean making big, bold, game-changing moves. It happens every day, little by little, as you own your team members’ strengths, speak up, stand out, and dare to take appropriate risks.
In this program Karin Hurt & David Dye give you practical methods to become a bit more daring every day for greater influence and impact—to become the courageous leader you would want to work for.
Learning Objectives:
Practical approaches to show up as a more authentic, courageous leader
Tools for gathering and responding to feedback
Techniques to prepare for and hold courageous conversations up, down, and sideways

Stakeholder Engagement helps us understand what people involved with a project want, and how to engage them to help achieve project success. For both new and experienced project managers, a big challenge is where to go for guidance on the topic.
The Stakeholder Engagement Focus Group, part of the APM People SIG, has started to collate stakeholder engagement resources on the APM Website.
This webinar provides an overview of the information and tools currently available and how you can help add to and improve this facility.
There are many reasons why projects may struggle to meet their goals but a lack of effective stakeholder engagement is widely acknowledged to be one of the main issues.
The Stakeholder Engagement Focus Group (SEFG), now part of the APM People SIG, was established to encourage practitioners to make stakeholder engagement a higher priority.
The first project for the SEFG was to start collating stakeholder engagement resources.
The aim is to support project professionals by sharing case studies, creating an introduction to the key principles of stakeholder engagement, and pointing to relevant and useful reference materials.
In this webinar Fran and Ian will introduce the Stakeholder Engagement Focus Group, provide an update on the SEFG’s progress to date and the materials available on the APM site, and plans for improving and building on these resources.
Presenters:
Fran Bodley-Scott: A veteran marketing & communication consultant with many years experience and founder of Marketing In Control, Fran specializes in customer retention and stakeholder engagement solutions. She’s been involved with projects throughout her career, ranging from product development to organisation change and business strategy implementation. Fran is an active member of the SEFG. She is a keen supporter of the PMO Flashmob and is also an active member of the APM Stakeholder Engagement Focus Group.
Ian Cribbes (LinkedIn profile) has worked with a wide variety of organisations within the UK and internationally, leading projects with values in excess of £35 million pounds. Ian is a co-opted member of the People SIG committee and an active member of the Stakeholder Engagement Focus Group. Ian now runs his own company assisting organisations with programme and project management issues and advising on stakeholder engagement processes.
Call for case studies:
Another important message from the webinar was a request for case studies. To help the SEFG support other practitioners, project managers are encouraged to provide case studies about their stakeholder engagement experience, tips and recommendations. If you have a case study to share, use the template provided below and send it to: SEFG@apm.org.uk.

Feedback contributes to improvement, productive changes, effectiveness, clear direction, an open culture, and, ultimately, success. Yet 95% of managers are unhappy with their performance review/management system and 59% of employees polled said that performance reviews are not worth the time.
We are on a mission to change those perceptions!
Effective feedback is about support and improvement, and a high-energy, positive work environment sets a dynamic tone and culture for employees and retail customers alike.
Every step of the feedback process sends signals that the culture of your organization is changing, becoming more open and innovative.
