Projects are the mechanism to realize business strategy, create competitive advantage and achieve organizational transformation.

Important stuff, but most often, projects are being done in addition to ongoing business operations with constrained resources.

Therefore success is dependent on getting the right resources, spending your budget wisely, and keeping people focused and motivated to execute.

Warning signs that a project is headed to failure include missed deadlines, confusion, conflict and churning. All this can contribute to project manager and team burnout.

Effective project managers look for these early warning signs of failure and burnout so they can take corrective actions, but more importantly, they proactively work to avoid them.

In this webinar you will learn tips and techniques to:

• Cultivate a healthy environment for your project, your team, and yourself
• Create best practices you can rely on to drive the project forward
• Leverage relationships to support and motivate

Activity Type: Education – Course or Training  1 Hour  1 PDU
Provider: Gartner Webinars

In Gartner’s CIO Agenda 2018 Survey, we asked CIOs to report their digital progress and to share insights on their personal role and actions in support of digital.

Gartner learned that digital progress varies widely both within and across industries, and yet some strikingly important common characteristics emerge among those organizations reporting the greatest progress.

In this webinar, two industry analysts, Brad Holmes (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Managing VP and Jan-Martin Lowendahl (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner VP Distinguished Analyst, will share these findings and reveal the strategies and tendencies of digital progress.

Use this data to compare and contrast your own digital efforts, both how you are orienting and organizing, and also your progress versus your peers and industry-wide leaders.

Webinar attendees will also be invited to try a short 11-question digital progress self-assessment and receive a personalized progress report.

Discussion Topics:

• The dimensions of digital progress and how they vary by industry
• The CIO behaviors and organizational approaches that are correlated with digital progress
• How your organization is doing compared to your peers and cross industry digital leaders
