As the workplace becomes increasingly digital and hybrid, today’s leaders must adapt to enable their people to thrive and perform to drive their personal success.

Leaders must become coaches, facilitators and change advocates. The workspace has shifted into the home for the majority of office workers across the planet, but before the pandemic, remote working represented approximately 5% of working practices.

We now enter a hybrid working world that must incorporate remote, hybrid, and office communities.

In this webinar Matt Hancocks (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director Analyst; will help leaders make the necessary adaptations to enable success with very different ways of working.

Discussion Topics:

• What’s different and what’s the same for leadership in the emerging “hybrid” working world
• Enhance and amplify relational skills, and become more visible and deeply human
• How leaders can become greater coaches, facilitators and change agents

All projects are tactical. And as a result, project managers are trained as tacticians, tactical thinkers.

However, all projects start as part of an overall strategy for the organization; each project is a step toward achieving one of the organization’s strategic goals. Successful projects never lose the strategic vision of which the project is a part.

Recommendations, decisions, actions taken all have to have some sense in light of the strategic impact of those decisions or actions.

Outages are planned shutdowns of plants for maintenance, including preventative maintenance and defects. Preventative maintenance works have pre-defined scope, a job plan and resource requirements built into a maintenance management system.

The problematic area is corrective maintenance scope (i.e., defects). Defects often result in significant increase in outage scope, known as scope creep.

Scope creep is a serious challenge that outage managers, outage engineers and planners face before and during an outage.

In order for us to manage it, it is necessary to understand what scope creep is—and what its causes are.

If the root causes are taken care of, the problem will be solved by itself!

In the webinar Naveed Rabbani (LinkedIn profile) will discuss this in detail based on practical experience and will be followed by Q&A.

Learning outcomes: 

• How to effectively manage and control changes in outages
• How to manage scope during an outage
• How to limit schedule, cost and scope variances
