In this webinar Lorenz Gareis will explore the relationship between projects and change. All projects require some type  of change management – Learn to strengthen your change management skill “By Projects”.

In today’s business context, the demand for major change seems to be never-ending.

Organizations tend to trigger major change initiatives to tackle challenges like agility, digital transformation etc. These major change initiatives are meant to discontinuously change the identity of these organization, which – more often than not – leads to a paralyzed state of organizations due to the level of complexity associated with these changes.

Managers lose focus, employees lack orientation and motivation and the triggered initiatives cannot create momentum.  But there are other ways to implement “changes” in organizations.

In our understanding, projects deliver change!

So, instead of inflating major change initiatives by increasing the scope and complexity further, why not change the perspective? Focus on the individual projects and put them in a change context.

Adapt and integrate values and methods from change management approaches into project management.

Empower project organizations and create fast results… and by doing this, let your projects create sustainable business value for your organizations that make at least some of these major change initiatives obsolete.

Presenter: Lorenz Gareis (LinkedIn profile) Managing Director Roland Gareis Consulting (RGC), Vienna, Austria; partners with clients to tackle challenges in the areas of project & program management, change management and business analysis. He co-authored – the book “Project Program Change” to replace the long-term classic “Happy Projects!”. Lorenz holds a master degree of the Vienna University of Economics &  Business. He inspires students to follow his passion by teaching project management at various universities of applied sciences.

Companies spend around $90 billion dollars annually on non-cash incentive programs.  Yet, even among the most admired companies, satisfaction with recognition is almost always among the lowest rated items on employee opinion surveys.

With so much investment, why is there so little return?

Join nationally recognized employee engagement experts, Dr. Bob Nelson, President of Nelson Motivation, and Dr. Rick Garlick, Vice President and Strategy Consultant for Magid Associates as they discuss the following:

• Poorly designed recognition and incentive programs are, at best, ineffective, and at worst, de-motivating.
• Well-intentioned HR professionals often design recognition and incentive programs that they personally find motivating, without necessarily considering the feelings or preferences of those on the receiving end.
• There is often a slanted focus toward tangible rewards without considering the potential of non-tangible rewards.
• Segmentation research is an effective tool for designing employee reward and recognition systems in the same way that customer segmentation is an effective way of marketing products and services.
