Project management is like building a house – the right way. What if the house was built on water in the middle of the rainy season?

During an emergency response, that is what project management feels like. But who doesn’t want to live on a house boat?

The requirements to being a successful project manager during an emergency response are similar in theory but require a rapid scale-up of stakeholder efforts without overlooking the cultural sensitivities required for compliance, adherence, support, and sustainability.

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.

Many businesses struggle when it comes to establishing a standardized approach to project management. And nowhere is this more evident than in the process and approach of project selection and prioritization.

We build layers of complexity and governance to select what our organizations will work on this year, next year, and beyond, and yet, we know there exists a dirty little secret about this process…it doesn’t matter.

Projects are often selected based on political reasons; whose pet project it is, what the HIPPO wants, who holds “sway”, etc. This has the profound impact of generating project waste, through investing time and money on things that simply don’t matter, and on the flipside, missing out on opportunities offered by roads untaken.

Often, these projects are misaligned to the needs of the business, the customer, and the staff. No wonder we’re all so frustrated!

In this presentation,  Vincent will go backward to find our way forward. Through leveraging a project prioritization tool borrowed from the Lean Six Sigma methodology, and he will engage in a discussion on the current prioritization process, how incredibly painful it is, and a simple, but effective, alternative to our current project prioritization approach; one that supports and ensures alignment to objectives of the enterprise, supports the needs of the business, and improves the value given to customers.

Vincent will give you the power to focus on ensuring your organization is doing the right work, at the right time, in the right priority.
