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.

Online Webinar – Recorded January 25th, 2013
Duration: 1 hour webinar Credits: 1 PDU Category A – Free PDU
Presented by: Solutions Cube Group (REP 2451)

As with many things in life, all projects are subject to uncertainty, however all uncertainty is not the same as “risk”. Project Risks can be “threats” to be minimized as well as “opportunities” to be exploited.

Effective Project Risk Management recognizes both types of risks and is the key contributor to “project success”.

This webinar 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.

Learn how to implement a more effective risk management effort that balances the impacts of project uncertainties occurring with the effort needed to prevent or encourage the uncertain event.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn:

  • The difference between Project Risk and Uncertainty
  • How to define the scope of a Risk Management Effort
  • How to use Risk Meta Language to identify project risk
  • How to use Qualitative Techniques to assess project risk
  • Techniques to “minimize” Risk Threats and “exploit” Risk Opportunities
