Join Sandra MacGillivray (LinkedIn profile) and learn how to leverage the Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI) to dramatically improve scope definition in construction capital projects.

This webinar provides an introduction to PDRI – the Project Definition Rating Index, a methodology developed by the Construction Industry Institute (CII) to ensure appropriate scope definition in construction projects.

Sandra will share how application of this proven methodology is helping industrial, infrastructure and building projects around the world achieve:

  • Increased cost and schedule certainty
  • Increased team alignment
  • Better transparency on risks

Project teams can easily use PDRI to assess their progress on scope development and work collaboratively to identify gaps and risks early in front end planning – before detailed design and construction begins.

Live Webinar July 27th, 2016, 11:00 am – 12:30 pm  EDT
Presenter: Change Management Learning Center (PROSCI)
Duration:1 hour Webcast + Q & A – Up to 1 Category C PDU –  Free PDU

Prosci specializes in change management processes.  With a strong developed expertise in change management processes they produce high quality informative presentations and seminars

Project managers are great at explaining the ‘what’ of a change project or initiative, but we often don’t focus on the one message that inspires people to take action – the ‘why’ of the change.

As a result, people don’t commit to the change and may focus narrowly on how it will impact them.

In this interactive webinar, Karen Ball (LinkedIn profile) wtih PROSCI will apply a simple model for crafting a compelling ‘why’ for your change that will get you thinking, communicating, and engaging your organization in a new and powerful way.

Karen will also explore the use of storytelling to communicate your ‘why’ on an emotional and personal level.

The webinar will include time for you to begin crafting your ‘why’ and engage with other participants who are doing the same.

Come with a change in mind to work on during the webinar.

PROSCI literally “wrote the books” on Change Management:

These texts are a MUST READ for anyone performing Change management as a part of their role!

Presented by:  Human Capital Institute
Webinar Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 Category C PDU – Free PDU

This story may sound like a fairy tale,
But it was the career ideal not long ago…

Once upon a time, men and women joined companies in entry-level positions, advanced until they reached senior leadership, and eventually retired with a hefty pension and large bank account – well positioned for their happily ever after.

Today, we live in a new world of work. Loyalty to a career has superseded loyalty to a company.  Individuals are taking ownership of their own career paths, and are on the constant watch for growth.

By that same token, companies are looking to recalibrate and rethink talent development in order to thrive with a more fluid talent marketplace.

In this webcast, join Rodd Wagner (LinkedIn profile) author of  Widgets: The 12 New Rules for Managing Your Employees as if They’re Real People, as he discusses the new social contract in the workplace and what that means for people and their employers.

Learn:

  • Why your employees really do want to keep working for you if you give them the right opportunities for career and personal growth
  • How you can foster increased dedication and loyalty in your workplace
  • Reasons you don’t need to be afraid for an employee to become an ex-employee – and maybe come back again
  • Why happiness at work matters
