Teamability^®:
The Ability To Connect With Others
To Form A Productive Team

Individual strengths can lead to a personal triumph,
But a team is greater than the sum of its parts.

Rich Karlgaard, Publisher of Forbes Magazine, recently wrote an article entitled “Teams Matter. Talent is Not Enough.”

In essence, it is a challenge for executives to find and exploit the “magic” of team synergy.

The metrics of teaming now exist!  Even the most extraordinary individual effort is no substitute for great teamwork. Teaming metrics are key to improving selection, increasing engagement, and vastly reducing new-hire turnover, all with measurable business value.

With TGI Teamability:
PMs will be able to create extremely strong teams.

In this introduction you will learn:

• A completely new technology will help you understand why talented, experienced people do not always “team” well with others.
• How to reduce the costs and risks associated with errors in hiring and promoting,
  • Metrics and methods that measure and predict “teaming” behaviors.
  • How to effectively analyze and solve team performance problems.
• How to deliver significant business value by matching people to the functional mission of their team
  • The ‘who fits where’ and the ‘why’ of winning teams
  • Behaviors that impact quality of team interaction and ‘fit’ to job responsibilities
• How it possible to reliably select high quality team players, and to match their job responsibilities to the way they envision themselves serving their team (their “Role”).

This is a MUST TAKE opportunity to help you understand the strengths of your team members placing them in the roles that will make your projects even more successful!

Project managers know that relationship management is essential to project success. Missing a key stakeholder can cause stress, turmoil and delays.

• What about the relationships that move your career forward?
• Do you have productive and effective relationships with executives, project managers and team members?
• Are you putting thought into your relationships or simply hoping for the best?

Your ability (or lack thereof) is one of the most important factors that determine whether or not you will advance to the highest paying roles in the profession.

In this webinar, you will learn strategies and techniques to manage three essential types of relationships:

• Executives and project sponsors: How to turn these powerful individuals into allies
• Peer Project Managers: how to access knowledge and opportunities from your peers
• Project Team Members: why and how to build relationships and talent for the long run

All attendees have the option to request a relationship building toolkit at no cost to continue building their skills.
