Evidence From 2 Case Studies In The Construction Industry

Digital transformation is a phenomenon occurring across sectors and nations, affecting not only technical processes, but also organizational forms and managerial practices.

Among them are:

1. Project-based organizations (PBOs), common in traditional sectors like the construction industry, and
2. Project networks (PNWs), the most favorable form of project organizing in modern service and creative industries.

Project management, which is often used as an agent for change, plays a significant role in initiating and implementing digital transformation. To analyze the digital transformation of traditional PBOs and modern PNWs, comparative case studies in the context of commercial construction have been conducted in Sweden and in Germany.

Special attention has been paid to the role of digital solutions such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) for organizing projects.

While there seems to be a shared understanding in both case studies of the potential of the technology to disrupt and innovate the industry, the actual usage leads to progress but also faces barriers.

Join Timo Braun (LinkedIn profile), &  Eskil Ekstedt (LinkedIn profile) in their cases detailing the process of digitalization & even rolls back to analog planning; and learn lessons for your project management.

It’s easy to see how times of crisis and the resulting need for organizational transformation present major challenges for leaders.

Yet, each challenge should be seen as an opportunity – a goldmine for developing talent and forging positive partnerships up, down, and across organizations.

If led appropriately, change creates a strategic, value-added role for HR and Talent Development professionals to play: to help leaders navigate through sharp edges and find real solutions that work.

Organizational transformation presents challenges that can easily become “pop-up learning labs” to simultaneously meet demands as well as develop deep capability; however, many organizations make mistakes that foster fear in the workforce, perpetuate outmoded norms, and promote behaviors inconsistent with what it will take to thrive in the future.

There is so much information from classic psychological theory to modern neuroscience research that we can use to avoid these mistakes and instead, capitalize on proven methods to achieve meaningful and sustainable results for our people and our organizations.

Join Barbara & learn what works and what doesn’t so you can leverage change for good.  Together we will explore a Change Intelligent^® approach to organizational transformation:

• How to engage the heart by leading change in a way that reduces the threat response and increases the probability that people will be open to exploring the positive possibilities
• How to enlighten the head by helping people at all levels “see” the need to change and the line-of-sight between themselves and the goal at a visceral level
• How to equip the hands by facilitating courageous conversations about the rhetoric versus the reality of how processes such as reward systems are helping versus hurting adoption of new behaviors

Presenter: Barbara A. Trautlein, Ph.D. (LinkedIn profile) is principal and founder of Change Catalysts, LLC, a change management and leadership development consultancy. She is the originator of the CQ® (Change Intelligence®) System and author of Change Intelligence: Use the Power of CQ to Lead Change That Sticks. She is gifted at sharing strategies and tactics that are accessible, actionable, and immediately applicable.

The methodology that Gartner uses to determine the Gartner Supply Chain Top 25 has been closely scrutinized over the years.

Gartner takes the feedback seriously, and continually investigates ways to improve the ranking, while balancing the need for change with consistency.

This year’s methodology changes included quantitative exercises, such as running potential changes against datasets from previous years.

We also solicited qualitative feedback from a cross-section of the supply chain community, including more than 100 companies and a formal feedback session with the Gartner Supply Chain Executive Advisory Board, which is composed of global chief supply chain officers from several leading companies.

In this webinar, Mike Griswold (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Research VP  provides insights into methodology changes for the 2020 Gartner Supply Chain Top 25 ranking, and how the Top 25 will continue to evolve in 2020 and beyond.

Discussion Topics:

• Why the methodology is changing
• The key methodology changes
• How the changes affect the Gartner Supply Chain Top 25

A Look At The Role Of PMI & ISO Standards In Agile

Risk Management is one of the hardest and most underused areas in traditional Project Management. Recognizing the importance of this discipline, PMI has developed standards, extending the PMBOK® Guide in an area that is crucial for delivery success.

Other international organisations, like ISO and COSO, developed similar standards, looking at Risk Management from the Enterprise perspective.

Most Agile frameworks developed for small software teams (relative to the size of an organisation) believe that adopting Agile is a Risk Mitigation approach and/or that in Agile risk is reduced compared with the traditional planned approach, wrongly limited to “waterfall” software development.

Apart from the fact that there is no empirical or scientific evidence of that, most Agile practitioners can’t or won’t look at the dual aspect of risk (positive and negative), missing one of the significant benefits of Agile – opportunities management, or in other words, positive risks.

Considering Risk Management from the Agile perspective, in this webinar Stelian Roman (LinkedIn profile) will review of how Risk Management practices and standards can be scaled down and adopted by Agile Teams.
