Too often we think of project management in the context of “doing projects right”, but it does not really work. We have to do the right projects first and make sure the desired outcomes do contribute to the company strategy realization.

Benefits realization management (BRM) can be a good solution to align project management with company strategy. There are some common mistakes, which companies make in BRM, and some action points to avoid them and improve the situation.

Join Dmitry Ilenkov (LinkedIn profile) and gain a better understanding of BRM definition and importance, some facts about BRM (according to PMI in-depth-series on BRM), frequent mistakes you can easily avoid and an action plan to implement benefits realization management.

This webinar content is based on PMI research & Dmitry’sunique experience.

Retaining and engaging employees are two goals that every organization is striving to achieve. Studies have shown that having engaged employees can drastically improve your bottom line, and a high level of retention is a key indicator that your company is filled with satisfied employees.

Although most organizations are striving for increased retention and engagement, that doesn’t mean it can be achieved quickly.

Engagement and retention increase when company culture is improved, and having opportunities to develop your employees plays a big part in creating a strong culture.

One strategic way to develop employees is through mentor programs. Many leaders like the idea of a mentor program but aren’t sure how to make it successful.

If that’s you, join Libby Powers (LinkedIn profile) as she discusses how to build a strong mentor program that will help you achieve your goals of increasing employee retention and engagement.

During this webinar you will learn: 

  • Key attributes needed for a strong mentor program
  • A step-by-step process on how to build your mentor program
  • How mentor programs can help increase employee engagement and retention

It’s an important and exciting time in corporate life, as companies emphasize building cultures that provide great experiences for employees and customers alike. Indeed, most executives consider employee engagement and culture to be of top importance to their organization’s mission and success.

Yet despite almost $1B a year in investment, employee engagement remains a challenge for most. In fact, most companies report they don’t have the resources, insights, and buy-in they need to realize lasting success.

Behavioral science has been largely overlooked as an evidence-based resource for culture building and employee engagement. Specifically, Self-Determination Theory has grown ten-fold over the last decade to become the leading scientific framework for motivation and engagement worldwide.

In addition to being adopted in HCM at leading companies, data is showing its remarkable ability to clearly define and measure the most critical dimensions of employee experiences. As importantly, there are a wealth of evidence-based and prescriptive actions that leaders, managers, and employees themselves can take to create meaningful change and positive impact.

However you currently measure engagement, this session will provide key insights on how this powerful framework can transform your employee engagement efforts, and become the foundation for a world-class culture that supports well-being and performance for everyone.

  1. Are your projects plagued by problems such as unresponsive business stakeholders, unclear expectations, pointing fingers, missed deadlines?
