We have all faced the challenge before. We’ve been asked to solve a problem. Sometimes, the request is to actually implement a specific solution. Months of work and thousands of dollars of investment later, however, things don’t get any better.

All too often, the problem that presents itself at the outset of a project isn’t the real problem at all.

It might be a symptom of the problem. It may be proxy for the the real problem. At times, what we think we are doing is only tangentially related to the real work that needs to be done.

Digging out root causes is a skillset that matters. Taking the time to explore a problem before moving on to a solution is a vital capability. Figuring out what the actual problem is—and not what is described or perceived—is essential to ultimate success.

In this webinar, Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management provides essential insights into how to explore and evaluate problems, how to identify and explore causal relationships, and how to do the necessary but difficult work of getting to root causes.

If problem solving is essential to your role—and when it isn’t it?—this is a webinar that you won’t want to miss.

Extracting knowledge from various workers is a key competency required for the current project professional.

Whether it involves product requirements, user acceptance criteria, creating the definition of done, determining value of stories in a backlog, or obtaining executive critical success factors, the project professional delivers many artifacts that depend on input from various knowledge workers scattered throughout the organization.

In this session Lynda & David will focus on the approach the project professional must take to have effective elicitation sessions.  You must approach it from the knowledge worker perspective and be able to establish an environment of trust and psychological safety.

They will discuss the importance of humility and that you are eliciting information.

They  will discuss the importance of seeing that environment to facilitate active listening and interactive engagement.

They will also take a holistic approach to the elicitation including setting expectations, eliciting information, and providing feedback.

Finally, they will explore the impact that cultural intelligence is a factor in the overall elicitation and feedback.

Learning Objectives:

1. The importance of utilizing several components of human relationships including humility, empathy, respect, and gratitude.
2. Articulate the entire cycle of eliciting information from initial contact to knowledge exchange engagement, to paraphrase understanding, to follow-up.
3. Use Cultural Intelligence techniques to understand how knowledge extraction techniques must align with the culture of the knowledge workers.
