Project managers have a variety of audiences that they are answerable to. Sponsors, steering committees, PMOs, auditors and so very many more. Ensuring success means addressing and being able to respond to the expectations of a spectrum of roles.

There is no audience more important to satisfy, however, than the one that is defined most generally: stakeholders.

In the world of project success, it is their perceptions and their viewpoints that fundamentally make the difference between far-and-away success and fearful failure.

Responding to stakeholder perceptions and delivering on their expectations is essential. Doing this is hard. Doing this well is a next-level challenge. Navigating the world of stakeholders perceptions and expectations and responding to them effectively is an essential focus.

It requires time, effort and focus. It also requires deft communication skills and a healthy dose of political astuteness.

For the successful project managers, embracing stakeholders and responding to them well is essential.

In this webinar Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management outlines the strategies to positively engage with your stakeholders in ways that will best position you for continued success.

If you struggle with the balancing act of coordinating stakeholder desires (and who doesn’t) this webinar is for you.

What You Want, How You Feel, What You Say

Individual and team success depends upon the ability of individuals to communicate with others, face-to-face as well as virtually.

Every interaction with another person determines how you are perceived and every interaction is an opportunity to develop trust and exert positive influence.

Whether presenting one-to-one or to an audience of one thousand, conveying information to a project team or delivering a difficult message, communicating effectively is one of the most powerful skills for achieving your objectives.

• Define goals for specific communications
• Key skills involved in communicating clearly and with impact
• Barriers to effective communication
• Planning your communication strategy

Building an effective relationship with your project sponsor is absolutely essential to enduring success as a project manager. The challenge is that many people with the title of project sponsor don’t really know what is required or expected of them in the role.

Successfully building a relationship with your sponsor consists of equal parts negotiation, coaching and education. As a project manager, it very often will fall to you to help your project sponsor to succeed and thrive in the role.

In this webinar Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management explores what it takes to develop, build and sustain a successful relationship with your project sponsor. You will learn how to negotiate expectations up front to position yourself for success.

You’ll gain strategies for appropriately guiding, educating and coaching your sponsor in the role in a way that they will accept and value. You will also learn how to course correct and provide constructive feedback in a way that is most likely to ensure that it is heard positively and meaningfully taken on board.

For anyone that wants to improve the relationship with their current project sponsor—or thrive in engaging with their next one—this is a presentation that you won’t want to miss.
