Project managers from APM and change managers from ChgMI will walk through the core competencies of each profession as outlined by the professional bodies’ Body of Knowledge.

Leaning on their experiences of projects across private and public sectors and spanning a whole range of industries the panel of practitioners will explore examples of what each of the capabilities might look like in a project, exploring why it is needed and what benefits it can bring to overall projects success.

In this session attendees will learn:

1. What are the core capabilities of project management and change management?
2. Where do these capabilities overlap?
3. What can the overlaps or capabilities offer organisations?

The format is a panel discussion on the core competencies required in project management and change management.

APM Enabling Change SIG and APM People SIG committee members, along with change managers from ChgMI form the panel for this discussion. More details on this session will be published on this page shortly.

The global pandemic, caused by Covid-19, has forced many people to work from home. In fact, of all U.S. workers, 56 percent could do all or some of their work from home. According to Global Workplace Analytics (GlobalWorkplaceAnalytics.com), it is estimated that:

• 5 million employees (3.6% of the U.S. employee workforce) currently work-at-home half-time or more
• Regular work-at-home has grown 173% since 2005, 11% faster than the rest of the workforce (which grew 15%) and nearly 47x faster than the self-employed population
• 43% of employees work remotely with some frequency
• 62% of employees say they could work remotely
• Studies repeatedly show desks in central offices are vacant an estimated 50-60% of the time
• 80% of employees want to work from home at least some of the time
• 35% of employees would change jobs for the opportunity to work remotely full time (47% of Millennials and 31% of boomers); 37% would do so to work remotely some of the time (50% of Millennials and 33% of Boomers)
• Flexibility is one of the highest-ranked benefits by Millennials

Yet few managers have been given training on how to manage work-from-home employees, and fewer still have been given special training on how to encourage group dynamics and group interaction among virtual work groups or work teams. As nearly everyone knows, working from home is not the same as working from a central office, and it requires new management approaches and new ways for workers to work together to achieve results.

Virtual group coaching is the term used to describe efforts by executives, managers, team leaders, or employees to encourage group dynamics in virtual work settings. It is a specialized term used to describe a way of reinventing so-called process consultation, which is a change effort designed to facilitate improvements in group dynamics among residential (work-from-a-central-office) employee groups.

Upon completion participants will be able to:

• Define virtual group coaching
• Describe the characteristics of highly productive virtual groups
• Summarize how to facilitate more effective interaction among work-from-home employee groups
• Discuss a model that can guide implementation of a virtual group coaching effort
• Evaluate how well a small group or team is working together and identify ways to intervene to improve group interaction to get more effective work results from a team
