What is missing from the creation of more leadership positions for women in the workplace?

1. Is it that the development pipeline isn’t being filled with young women that have the skills, drive and ambition to advance upward into executive leadership roles?
2. Is it the traditional stigma of the glass ceiling or the foolhardy notion that a professional woman can have either a career or a family, but not both?
3. Or is it, as some say, that there just aren’t many opportunities for women in leadership roles, either by design or by circumstance?

Simply looking at Yahoo!, Apple, IBM, and Hewlett-Packard makes it clear that the preconceived notions have been effectively shattered.

Successful, innovative, big businesses have entrusted their fortunes in the capable hands of female executives.

Cardinal Health, a Fortune 17 healthcare company with over $100 billion in revenue and over 33,000 employees, has taken bold steps to accelerate the advancement of women internally, but also in the community and in the healthcare industry.

Join Aida Sabo (LinkedIn profile), VP of Diversity and Inclusion and Lisa George (LinkedIn profile), VP of Global Talent Management, from Cardinal Health on this webcast for a discussion on lessons learned and strategies that are making a difference.

The WBS 100% Rule

Creation of a complete WBS for a project can be accomplished when project teams understand and adhere to the WBS 100% rule.

Project teams often confuse the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) with the Project Schedule or treat these different project deliverables as interchangeable project elements. The WBS is a pre-requisite project deliverable defining tangible project deliverables while the project schedule depicts how these deliverables will be produced.

The 100% rule ensures that all deliverable components are included in the WBS and helps the project team decompose the WBS into manageable work packets. The work packets represent the level of clarity in the WBS that will allow for a natural transition from tangible deliverables to activities for producing these deliverables.

Solutions Cube Group’s live Webinars address many relevant project issues. Learn how to build a detail WBS that represents 100% of the work to be produced and expand the WBS deliverables into project schedule activities.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn:

• The use of the WBS 100% rule
• Techniques for numbering the WBS components to clearly depict relationship of each WBS component to its parent component
• Using the WBS as a blueprint that can be easily tailored to represent smaller project efforts and drive our project schedule activities.
