• Are executives and other business managers supporting your projects adequately?
• Has upper management been proactively involved in motivating stakeholders, making timely decisions and preventing major issues and risks?

If not, you’re not alone!

Most project managers put effective executive support at the top of their project wish list. No wonder!

Lack of management support has long been one of the top reasons for project failure.

Diana Rogero  wanted to find out the causes and solutions for the business-manager disconnect. She examined her experiences during the last 40 years as a manager, PM Coach and IS process improvement consultant.

What she found was very different from the “common knowledge” about executive participation in projects.

This presentation reveals the break-through secrets for effective business manager involvement. It describes the 3 Big Barriers to effective executive involvement and introduces the 3 Big Project Questions that every business manager needs to ask proactively, throughout the project.

This presentation challenges project managers to look at their projects through a different, executive perspective.

Participants take away practical insights and ready-to-use methods that they can share with executives and business managers across their organizations.

Stuxnet, a worm in Iran’s nuclear plant control system, was the beginning.

We are now seeing foreign cyber penetration into the North American power grid, water plants, chemical plants and other critical infrastructure facilities.

Mistakes in cyber space mean adversaries can penetrate networks not at the speed of people, but at the speed of the network.

Cyber experts believe the cyber domain is the most vulnerable point for US defenses and that the US is not yet ready for cyber war.
