What happens to your project schedule when top talent leaves your team?

1. How long does it take to recruit, hire, and get back up to speed with a new team member?
2. How much sleep will you lose figuring out how to explain these delays to unhappy stakeholders?
3. What will you say when they ask how you could have prevented this in the first place?

The Key To Employee Retention Is Employee Engagement

Employee engagement is mission critical when high turnover rates threaten productivity and innovation. Replacing an employee costs a minimum of 20% of salary in recruiting and training.

Trendy benefits programs, casual Fridays, and other top-down engagement initiatives often miss the mark when it comes to engaging employees, because the strongest predictor of employee satisfaction is the employee-manager relationship.

In this webinar Kristin Mead (LinkedIn profile) offers managers the fundamental framework for building relationships that engage, sustain, and retain top talent.

It will empower you to create your own culture of engagement, transforming even the most disengaged employees into loyal, committed, high-performing team members.

Learning Objectives

• Understand what engaged employees really want from their managers
• Understand the symbiotic relationship between employee engagement and inclusion
• Learn a 4-step strategy for engaging employees quickly, effectively, and systematically
• Learn how to sustain engagement, by making every conversation an engagement conversation

Project Online provides many powerful reporting tools and is a treasure trove of information. However, many organizations have other data sources that affect or otherwise influence the data from Project.

It is common to have other internal or external data sources that, when combined with Project data provides a richer source of information.

While the core of the data might be from Project Online there may be other data sources that can be combined to present a fuller portrait.

In this presentation Collin Quiring will set up Project Online to have the right data but then about combining that data with other data sources into a visual dashboard.

This can make decision making a bit easier as decision-makers don’t have to look into one system for one set of data and another system for another set of data and then combine those in their head with scheduling data.

With the data combined into one dashboard all the key metrics from all of the systems can be used together.

Presenter: Collin Quiring (LinkedIn profile), MBA, OPM3, PMP, MCTS, MCT, CIRM is a capable professional with over 20 years of experience in several industries supporting Project Management, Resource Management, Product Development, Systems Administration, and Training.
