1. Are your projects plagued by problems such as unresponsive business stakeholders, unclear expectations, pointing fingers, missed deadlines?
2. Do project critical business decisions seem to take forever?

These common issues can cause high stress and frustration, repeated mistakes, wasted time, and rework.

• Do your stakeholders then wonder why “IT didn’t get it right”?

Business stakeholders sometimes see IT work as the “black box,” the unknown. Coupled with their own work demands, there can be a tendency to hang back and think “IT will make it happen.”

In this webinar, we will cover ways to increase the level of business engagement and ownership on your projects.

Key Webinar Objectives:

• Learn how to proactively design more successful outcomes while building credibility and enhancing relationships with your business community.
• Gain tips on how to educate them about working with IT teams in partnership to create a more positive overall project experience.
• Improve project success through proactively educating business stakeholders on how to work effectively with IT.
• Enhance your relationship and credibility with stakeholders for immediate and longer-term project success.
• Learn to minimize stress, miscommunications, missed deadlines, and rework while clearly setting expectations and accountability.
