In this webinar the presenters will discuss best practices for leading and managing virtual teams and why building a dialogue with stakeholders can become the most valuable leadership capacity in overcoming stakeholder resistance.

A Sneak Peak At:

Workshop: Overcoming Stakeholder Resistance through Dialogue

One of the most common challenges project managers face is stakeholder resistance. The ability to influence others is at the heart of project management: not so much in persuading stakeholders but to incorporate and orchestrate them in a greater project setting.

This workshop will explore why and how building a dialogue with stakeholders can become the most valuable leadership capacity in overcoming stakeholder resistance.

Interactive exercises include:

  • Identifying and becoming aware of your stakeholders
  • An active and mindful listening exercise (dialogue walk)
  • Stakeholder interview simulation

Workshop: Leading Virtual Project Teams: Dos and Don’ts

A project professional of today lives in an increasingly virtual world, resulting in the need to (manage) LEAD virtual projects.  The dynamics of a (co-located) REMOTE team require project managers to communicate with their teams differently. Explore best practices and practical strategies in this interactive workshop that will help a project leader bridge the culture, time and language barriers and eliminate the distance.

Presenters: Colleen Braun, Thomas Juli (LinkedIn profile), Penny Pullan (LinkedIn profile, @PennyPullan), Tara McCallum (LinkedIn profile), Carla Fair-Wright (LinkedIn profile), Evi Prokopi (LinkedIn profile)
