Being a strengths-based project manager means playing to the strengths of those around us to build cohesive high-performing teams.

As modeling is such a powerful way to influence others, the first step is to become aware of our own strengths, to explore how they show up for us and to learn how to target our strengths.

In this session with Ruth Pearce (LinkedIn profile)  attendees will learn about the “aware-explore-apply” model of character strengths and how just knowing their own strengths will positively impact their teams and projects.

The session is packed with information about why strengths matter, how your strengths can help you and the people around you and ways to start engaging strengths right away. When you leave, you will have tools you can use immediately to start making a difference.

This is part one of a two-part webinar series. As this is a very popular session registration for part 2 is full.  PDU Of The Day will be promoting the recorded session when it becomes available. Introduction to Strengths-Based Project Management – Seeing the Strengths of Others (Part 2)

The Carillion collapse in early 2018 seemingly took many by surprise as they were ‘too big to fail’.

In this webinar Sarah Schütte will look at the provisions that can go into a contract that offer some protection; both financially and in terms of being able to manage the situation, should a provider start to fall down the slippery and accelerating slope into insolvency.

By the end of the webinar you will know what each provision is, why it is useful, and when to use it. You will also appreciate some of the more common hazards.

This webinar will cover:

An Overview

How the contract can help the parties

Top ten contract provisions:

1. General supplier obligations to perform leading up to insolvency.
2. Payment mechanism:
   • Prompt payment terms,
   • Cashflow, retentions,
   • Advance payments,
   • Project Bank Accounts.
3. Benefits and Earned Value: records / measurement for works completed / in progress / not paying too much too soon.
4. Change control.
5. Client direct purchase of materials and implications.
6. Collateral warranties, priority and step-in rights.
7. Monitoring provisions and duty to notify.
8. Insolvency of nominated sub-contractors.
9. The site: physical control and insurance.
10. The impact of insolvency on liabilities and indemnities.

Hazards and pitfalls

• Termination provisions: why, how much and how, including different forms of insolvency and how to approach when in private or public sector.
• Title and ownership of materials: devices including IP, bonded goods and materials, escrow.
• Project security: PCG, PB, surety and due diligence.
• Risk flowdown: supply chain considerations.
• Ensuring the “balanced project basket”.

Final Q&A’s

Note: This is the second of three planned webinars on provider insolvency. The first one looked at selecting a solvent provider, while the last one will look at what to do when a provider starts to unravel on your project, using lessons learned from an experienced project manager.
