Are You Looking To Become More Agile And Innovative?

Given the complex, often unpredictable nature of today’s global business environment, organizations and their leaders are looking for ways to become more agile and innovative. At the same time, many organizations can ill-afford to forgo rigor and discipline.

In many organizations, employees now pursue an array of different kinds of projects simultaneously. Some are well defined; others need to adapt to rapidly changing scope, emerging technologies and evolving markets.

Within a single company or nonprofit, requirements, expectations and constraints may vary dramatically between product lines, functions or business units, resulting in the need for more or less agility versus discipline. The implications for how the work should be set up and executed can vary widely as a result.

Join the faculty of the Stanford Advanced Project Management program for this conversational and interactive webinar which will feature an open dialogue with Professor Ray Levitt, John Warren and Tim Wasserman. You will come away with valuable insights you can apply as they explore the challenge of how an organization can manage a mix of more versus less agile projects from traditional planning approaches to agile, and everything in-between.

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.

Scoring a comprehensive RFP document doesn’t have to be a slow and subjective process. An auto-scoring electronic RFP document that incorporates objective score values and weights can be used to aide in differentiating one vendor’s proposal from another. Additionally, assessing the viability of a vendor to effectively deliver their proposed solution can be part of the scoring process.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn:

• The value of creating an electronic scoring RFP document
• How to create and use an electronic scoring RFP document
• How to assign scores and weights to Requirements and Vendor Questions to take the subjectivity out of the RFP process

Join Solutions Cube for this 1 hour in-depth webinar and learn how to create and use an electronic RFP document to take the subjectivity out of your vendor proposal evaluations.

Do You Know All The Risks On Your Project?

Many Risk Management activities stop far too soon defining project risks, focusing only on the obvious 10 – 20 risks that quickly come to mind. This short sighted approach to identifying project risks leaves the project exposed to many risks that will go unmanaged and result in problems and issues to be resolved later during the project.

To effectively define project risk, the team needs to clearly differentiate between definite causes that exist in the project environment, uncertainties that might occur as a result of these causes and the impacts to project objectives if these uncertainties occur.

The Risk Management Series of in depth webinars will introduce participants to techniques for defining a Risk Management Process and using this process to progressively build a Risk Register including: identifying risks using a Risk Meta-Language, Assessing Risks with quantitative techniques, understanding the 8 risk responses and selecting the appropriate Risk Response for the project risks and monitoring risks throughout the project.

Solutions Cube Group’s Identifying All of the Risks On Your Projects will teach your project teams how to identify all of the project risks that may need to be managed throughout the life of a project. They will learn how to leverage other project deliverables to uncover, describe and ultimate assess and respond to project risks.

In the Creating Clear Project Risk Statements webinar, participants learn:

• What existing project deliverables can be used to uncover project risks
• How to use the Risk Meta-Language to drive out risk statements and fully differentiated between cause, uncertainty and project impact
• Techniques for identifying project risks
• Techniques for assessing which risks need to be managed more aggressively versus those that should be placed on the Risk Watch List
