Effective PPM Change Management

Share

Live Webinar – October 31st, 2013 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT
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

Do you know your CQ? {Change Quotient}

From new technologies to economic pressures to ever-increasing competition, today’s organizations are constantly under pressure to execute change.

According to estimates nearly 70% of changes fail, resulting in financial loss and employee cynicism.

In this webinar, you will learn how to get beyond the buzzwords and leverage a proven formula for change that creates results that last.

The CQ System for Developing Change Intelligence is based on decades of leading organizational, team, and personal transformations; years of global research across the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa on managing change; and deep study into the psychology and neuroscience of change.

The CQ System has been used to “make it real in the field” in leading mission-critical change projects spanning from new facility start-ups, to turnarounds, to mergers, to process improvement initiatives, to technology implementations in industries ranging from healthcare to high tech, refining to retail, and steel mills to sales functions.

Webcast attendees will gain:

  1. An understanding of what CQ/Change Intelligence is – what it consists of and key success drivers.
  2. A knowledge of their own CQ and Change Leader style, which includes appreciating how to leverage their personal Change Leader strengths as well as discerning how to shore-up their blind spots with targeted developmental strategies.
  3. Discovery into how to develop the Change Intelligence of the individuals they coach and teams and organizations they support.
  4. Insight into how to launch change initiatives successfully and how to get stalled projects back on track through engaging the heart, inspiring the head, and equipping the hands to lead people and teams in positive, new directions.

Presenter: Barbara A. Trautlein, Ph.D. (LinkedIn profile) is principal and founder of Change Catalysts, LLC, a change management and leadership development consultancy. She is the originator of the CQ® (Change Intelligence®) System and author of Change Intelligence: Use the Power of CQ to Lead Change That Sticks.
