Susanne Madsen (LinkedIn Profile @SusanneMadsen) Program Director, Project Leadership Coach, author of “The Power of Project Leadership: 7 Keys to Help You Transform from Project Manager to Project Leader” & the Project Management Coaching Workbook: Six Steps to Unleashing Your Potential. Susanne has years experience in managing and rolling out large change programs.Susanne’s big passion is helping project managers get to the next level – and to help organisations set-up coaching and mentoring programmes to enable that.The majority of her experience stems from working with investment banks such as JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Standard Bank.Susanne is a PRINCE2 and MSP Practitioner and a qualified Corporate and Executive coach. She is also a member of the Association for Project Management (APM).

Susanne believes that a great project manager is first and foremost able to manage his or her own state of mind and that project management success is as much about managing people as it is about managing tasks, plans and resources. As a result she helps people to look inwards and become a better leader; someone who sets a great personal example, who is excellent at inspiring and focusing the team and who also understands how to liaise with the client and senior stakeholders to deliver that which they really need.

Deepening Your Leadership Skills

Research shows that one of the most important roles of a leader is to mobilize their team around a shared vision.

But vision comes naturally for only about 1% of leaders.

If you’re not part of the 1% or if you haven’t been struck by the lightning bolt of vision, you can still create a shared vision by learning the principles discussed in this webcast.

Even if you are not currently a team leader, if you’re on a leadership journey, this webcast will prepare you for one of your most important roles.

What You Will Learn:

• How to create an inspiring vision that mobilizes everyone on your team
• Goals and actions that help you get where you want to go
• Six guidelines to help you stay the course and make your vision a reality

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.

Presenter:  Jesse Lyn Stoner  (LinkedIn profile,  @JesseLynStoner), is the founder of Seapoint Center, a consultant, keynote speaker, and co-authored with Ken Blanchard the bestseller Full Steam Ahead! Unleash the Power of Vision in Your Work and Your Life, 2nd Edition. This new edition of Full Steam Ahead! is a revised and expanded version. The popular first edition was translated into 22 languages and has sold over a quarter of a million copies.

Jesse mentors others on aspects of Vision, Leadership, Strategy, and Collaboration. Jesse’s very popular blog engages her readers and helps them create engaged workplaces that make positive impacts on the world. Her positive philosophy and dynamic results encourage others to make contributions as leaders in the workplace, in their communities, within their families, and in their own lives.

One of the most mindful posts I’ve read was Jesse Lyn Stoner’s 7 Tips For Sharing Your Vision With Your Team. I have always promoted a collaborative positive environment but she reminded me that “You don’t have to figure it all out before you share it with your team.” She offers guidelines for bringing that vision to the team. For an excellent primer on the concept of a compelling vision, check out her article “I Think We Have a Vision. It Must Be Around Here Somewhere.”
