Disrespect happens. No matter how we reinforce expectations for workplace respect, every workplace encounters those who become workplace nightmares.

If ignored or handled badly, bad behavior can devastate a project, team or organization like a wildfire. If handled early and effectively, relationships and workplace culture will be enriched.

This makes disrespect management critical – it takes skill to effectively avoid arguments, clarify misunderstandings, deal with disputes, and repair relationships. Simply put – disrespect requires intervention and direct conversations.

Disrespect can be effectively managed and even avoided if steps are taken early to reinforce behavioral expectations and devise an action plan for going forward.

Furthermore, by applying a series of thoughtful steps and tools, most be behavior can be resolved effectively.  Critical to success is learning how to engage early, using skills to identify and confront the disrespect and avoid escalation.

The focus of this webinar is on providing leaders with tools for approaching and resolving disrespect issues, before they become full-blown conflicts. Participants will learn how to assess the situation early, maturely and how to change the context of the conversation.

This webinar helps leaders use direct conversations to take the initiative to confront the problem.

Critical to disrespect management, participants will develop strategies for changing the context of conflicts from negative to positive, from disrespectful to appropriate. Participants will learn how to turn a disagreement into an opportunity to provoke learning and enrich relationships.

This webinar will enable participants to understand how to effectively reduce and manage workplace disrespect. More specifically, it will enable participants to enhance their communication skills and awareness.

Learn:

  • To proactively engaging to confront disrespect
  • To address bad behavior
  • To have difficult conversations
  • To tackle tough behavioral challenges
  • To improve listening skills
  • To enrich relationships and workplace culture
  • To change the context of disrespect from negative to positive

Online Webinar  – Recorded 1st Mar 2017
Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media  1 PDU – Free
Provider: Association for Project Management – APM

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.

These APM Stakeholder Resources are now available on the APM website and .accessible to anyone!

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.

This is the third and final webinar in the Afterburner Flawless Execution series.

Although it is not a prerequisite to participate in this session, be sure to view the first webinars in this series, 

  1. The Flawless Execution Advantage for Project Managers and
  2.  How to Identify Your Plan is at Risk: Managing Project Risk with Flawless Execution.

What do you do once your project comes to an end?

When projects end in success, we often high-five and move on to the next project or task.

This may be successful in the short run, but long-term, it is critical to pause after every one of your projects for a Debrief.

In Flawless Execution, the Debrief is where the root causes of success and failure are identified.

Joel Neeb (LinkedIn profile) will teach you how to conduct a structured Debrief to assure your team can scale successes and eliminate the failures that may have occurred during the project.
