Project Managers Need To Know About Behavioural Change!

To be an effective Project Manager, an appreciation of what is required to create behavioural change is essential.

It is no longer enough to appreciate that project deliverables trigger the ‘change curve’ where our users experience lower productivity as they unlearn the old ways of working and practice and build competency in the new ways of working. Project Managers need to understand the activities involved in making this change and the time required.

This debate is relevant for Project Managers, Programme Managers and those in the PMO and for Change Managers to consider how they can best support effective project delivery.

Presenter:  Melanie Franklin, (LinkedIn profile, @AgileMelanie) has a track record of excellence in project, programme and portfolio planning & delivery. She has set up and run the project management capability for several major corporates and has been responsible for the successful delivery of global transformational change programmes for over twenty years. Co-chair of the Change Management Institute in the UK, Melanie is a ‘Master’ level change practitioner and author of many books on change and project management including Managing Business Transformation: A Practical Guide and Agile Change Management: A Practical Framework for Successful Change Planning and Implementation

Both individual and team success depend upon clear and effective interpersonal communication.

Whether face to face or virtual, every interaction with another person influences how you are perceived and provides an opportunity to develop trust and build a positive relationship.

Whether presenting one-on-one or in front of an audience of 1,000, conveying information to a project team or delivering a difficult message, communicating effectively is one of the most powerful skills for achieving your objectives.

This webinar will teach you how to focus on your outcome, tune in to your audience, and develop your messages for clarity and impact.

Your ability to create an environment for open discussion and ongoing dialogue is crucial for communication success.

The communications skills covered can increase your ability to exercise choice and control for every type of conversation, influence without authority, and improve the quality of relationships and productivity.

Learning Objectives Include:

  • A blueprint for designing any important communication
  • Six principles to guide your interactions
  • Emotional intelligence to manage challenging conversations
  • Alignment of the four key components of communication to achieve your outcome

Microsoft has recently launched a very impressive update to its PPM Power BI Content Pack, which allows organizations to get started quickly with dashboards and reports without requiring any customizations in Project Online.

The new Content Pack contains the latest visualizations and features available in Power BI, and it comes with 13 pages supporting portfolio, resource, and project reporting.

Even though the released Content Pack represents a huge advance in the way companies are now able to report against their data, there is always space to take a step further.

Based on my real-world experience working with customers to solve their business requirements and meet their strategic goals, during this session Raphael will demonstrate how you can use 5 custom visuals that are not included in the out of the box Content Pack to create stunning reports.

You’ll learn, through a combination of hands-on lab and practice, the business requirements and use cases for each of the 5 custom visuals – and will be able to take your PPM Content Pack to the next level.

Presenter: Raphael Santos (LinkedIn profile) is the author of Excel 2013 – Módulo Intermediário (Portuguese Edition).  As a PPM Consultant, with deep expertise in providing Microsoft Project & Project Server solutions, he has worked in several projects to implement PPM tools, including countries in Latin America and Africa.
