If you’re trying to sell to internal (within your organization) or external stakeholders (paying customers, government, influencers, etc.), they can vanish just when you thought they would be supportive and say “Yes”. This happens even if they’ve “bought” before. It might seem like a mystery or like there’s little you can do to know it’s happening or prevent it.

Start with understanding their “Buying Continuumâ„¢”. Just as you have a stakeholder agreement or customer sales process, every one of them is a “buyer” with their own “buying” process.

Learn how to use it to your advantage!
Capture more of those “wild” stakeholders
Who could be getting away …

Jan will also discuss how to recognize the “Platinum Profile Stakeholdersâ„¢” that you really can’t afford to lose.

Bring examples to discuss.
Walk away with actions to take.

Presented by: Eclipse Project Portfolio Management
Duration: 1 hour 1 PDUs Credits: Category C 1 PDU- Free PDU

Project Portfolio Management (PPM) initiatives are expected to provide significant benefit to multiple roles within an organization.

Intuitively, most staff can understand the potential value in the organization, process and technology changes involved with a PPM initiative. However, the lack of change management practices through a PPM initiative’s implementation is one of the most common reasons for their failure. Symptoms of this issue can include poor executive commitment, resistance or political pressure from functional management and compliance issues with project teams.

Eclipse will review common misconceptions about PPM initiative implementations, provide some guiding principles for successful change and detail the steps and key communication messages necessary to gain buy-in from executive and functional management as well as from project teams.

This webinar will also provide tips that can be incorporated into the initiation and planning of your PPM initiative to increase your odds of success.

Who should attend this webinar?
C-Level Management, IT Directors and Managers or Directors of PMOs

Presented by: Solutions Cube Group (REP 2451)

Selecting a vendor through a Request For Proposal (RFP) process doesn’t always guarantee that the solution the vendor proposed, and the project team selected, really meets the project’s needs and stakeholder’s expectations.

Once the short list of vendors has been determined, the project team needs to look more closely at how well the proposed solutions meet the stated project requirements.

This is the critical time to gain alignment on the gaps that exist and the appropriate adjustments required by the vendor to close the gaps. This will help minimize the padding vendors typically incorporate to address project unknowns.

Learn how to engage the vendor and the project team, in collaborative meetings, to ensure the selected solution will be able to deliver the expected outcome.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn about:

• Conducting a preliminary and secondary evaluation of vendors to create your “short” list
• How to conduct detailed evaluations of vendors on the short list
• Techniques for collaboratively performing a Gap Analysis of the proposed solution with the project team and the vendor
