Positive Leadership in Project ManagementWhen a person is assigned as a project manager, he or she is placed in a leadership position, regardless of size and complexity of the project. The project manager then assumes both leadership and management responsibilities. There are many theories and suggestions about what a successful leader is and there will probably always be some debate about what qualities truly make an effective leader. Positive leadership, I believe is one of the key success criteria. Leaders who display enthusiasm, some emotion, a willingness to take risks and accept the occasional mistake as a learning experience and who take the time to recognize and acknowledge the work of their teams are displaying positive leadership. Positive leaders create WOW teams and produce WOW projects and emphasize professionalism, and excellence in execution and delivery. Project Management Books By Frank Saladis:

Successful Project Delivery Through Purpose and EngagementProjects fail more often than we care to admit. How frequently varies by the study, but few argue that number is significant and opportunistic – unless you’re referring to their projects. It’s been estimated that $12 trillion dollars a year is spent on projects a year. That’s about a fifth of the world’s GDP. The question is why do they fail. This has been studied substantially as well. The common element these studies highlight are people factors. This, you can likely relate to your project. Think about the people on your project. How many of them are fully engaged? How many bring their full presence to the tasks. How many are there to check off their tasks on the workplan and collect their checks at the pay period? Our discussion will explore how engagement and purpose drives successful project delivery. And how you can drive engagement on your project to raise the likelihood success. Irene Becker

The Use of Assessments in Gauging Project MaturityStudies show that a significant number of projects either fail outright or don’t meet all of their objectives. This is not due to a failure of project management as a discipline. It’s due largely to a failure to correctly engage the tools and techniques of project management. Sometimes this happens at the grass roots level but as often as not, these processes are not well understood at the senior management level. There are various maturity models that speak to how well a company runs its projects from the ad hoc “chaos” level up to the fully optimized level. And the problem is that too many companies run at or near the ad hoc level, endlessly churning and repeating the same mistakes. In this talk I’ll discuss a model of project maturity and how the bar can be raised by using assessments to gauge both project manager maturity and the healthiness of your projects. Dev Ramcharan
