The UK Government has developed a Project Delivery Standard based on leading best practice to support the successful delivery of government projects.

Project delivery is at the heart of all government activity, whether it’s building roads and rail, strengthening our armed forces, modernising IT or transforming the way government provides public services to citizens. Getting these projects right is essential.

The Project Delivery Standard has been developed by government, for government. It combines leading best practice into a single Standard that is fit for more than 11,000 project delivery professionals who are leading and delivering some of the country’s most complex projects.

While there is no one set way to deliver a project, there is now a common Standard that project delivery professionals can follow to ensure they are empowered to deliver and government is setting up projects and programmes for success.

This webinar will provide an overview on:

  1. Why Government needs Project Delivery Standards
  2. The development of the Project Delivery Standard
  3. The benefits of a Project Delivery Standard
  4. Who the Standard affects within and external to Government
  5. How you can use the Standard

How To Lead With Presence & Impact!

Why does emotional intelligence (EI) matter? Because at the core of every outstanding leader are the abilities to connect, achieve, inspire and act with resilience.

Emotional intelligence has evolved from an area of research to a recognized set of best practices and core competencies that are at the heart of successful leadership. Today we use EI as an integrated set of skills that underpin highly effective, fast-reacting, and innovative organizations.

This webcast offers you a powerful introduction to the highly popular hands-on AMA seminar, Leading with Emotional Intelligence.

To give a real sense of EI in practice, we’ll take a deep look at how EI drives and facilitates your ability to lead collaboration.  You’ll also learn about the F.L.I.P. Modes of Conversation as a “must have” tool for collaboration and relationship enhancement.

If you want to become the consummate emotionally intelligent leader, this webcast is a great place to start.

Learn:

  • Emotional Intelligence (EI):
    • What it is and why it’s such a critical leadership skill
  • The 4 cornerstones of EI
  • How EI underpins and facilitates 6 core leadership competencies
  • The role EI plays in leading collaboration
  • How EI skills can help you overcome defensiveness
  • Learn how to F.L.I.P. a conversation toward collaboration

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