Handling Difficult Project Situations
Recorded March 5th, 2015

All projects run into difficulties and some troubling situations can be very challenging for the project team to address.

Issues with sponsors, clients, subcontractors, management and other stakeholders related to requirements, funding, resources, scope changes and other factors can arise, adding stress and turmoil to any effort.

Learn what the common project challenges are and what the PM and team can do to handle these situations effectively. Also learn how to lessen the probability that these troubling situations will surface on your projects.

The content of this seminar is the experiences of the speaker in over 40 years of experience in working with 100s of projects that have faced difficult situations.

• What are Common Difficult Situations Projects Face

• How To Avoid These Difficulties Before They Surface

Join Tom McGraw (LinkedIn profile) as he discusses how PMI® has implemented some extensive changes to their Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) program.

The distribution of required PDUs between Education and Giving Back has been changed to place more emphasis on education and reduce the number of credits that may come from working as a professional. PMI has created the Talent Triangle, which outlines a balance of skill areas ideal for long-term project and business success.

With this new structure, many requirements for certification renewal have changed – meaning you may need to know how you’re affected by this.

This 1-hour web seminar discuses the recent changes and what it means for you. This web seminar will be 50% explanation of the new Talent Triangle and 50% question and answer and real-world discussion
