Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media 1 PDU – Free
Provider:  The Corporate Education Group ( REP 1011 )

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

Path To Becoming An Inclusive Leader

Diversity has evolved from a mere compliance exercise with a focus on meeting numbers on various measurable attributes (gender, race, age, disability) to the reality that our organizations are increasingly diverse, multicultural and global.

Today, we refer to inclusive leadership as an integrated set of skills that are required to channel the power and potential of a diverse workforce for the benefit of the organization, teams, workgroups, individual employees, customers, suppliers and the communities we serve.

This session is a preview of the AMA seminar, Leading in a Diverse and Inclusive Culture, explains how this course gives you deeper insights into yourself, your team, and the benefits of inclusion at all levels in your organization.

Join Carrie Spell-Hansson who will teach you the characteristics and skills vital to an inclusive leader, including:

  • The difference between diversity and inclusion, and its presence in and influence on our day-to-day interactions and decisions
  • How to recognize the manner in which culture impacts our perceptions, beliefs, behaviors and responses
  • The concepts of unconscious bias, micro inequities and micro advantages
  • The characteristics of successful culturally competent leaders

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.

The Skills Gap Is Growing, The Workforce Is Aging,
And Labor Shortages Are Looming!

Last year, nearly 70% of HR professionals reported difficulty recruiting for full-time positions.

While the war on talent is nothing new, now more than ever, organizations need to think outside the box when it comes to recruiting great people.

Attracting and retaining older workers as part of your recruiting mix can yield dividends in the areas of engagement, workforce stability, and cognitive diversity.
