1. As a business analyst, do you manage your manager?
2. Do you know what information to provide to your manager, when to provide it and how to provide it in the best and most influential manner?
3. Are you ever in a position where you need to “manage” other people on the project or even those outside the project, even though you have no authority to do so?

In a survey of CIOs conducted a few years back, the majority mentioned some form of upward management as a contributor to their success in achieving their executive level positions.

The role of the business analyst is one in which the exercise of upward management contributes to their future success, but it is also necessary to their basic survival and success in their role.

Upward management and what we might term “sideways management”, or the management of others outside the project who are in a supervisory role, is a form of applying influence to get things done without exerting authority.

In this webinar Steven discusses the different aspects of upward and sideways management, providing tips and techniques to employ as well as pitfalls to avoid.

Blais, PMP, PMI-PBA (LinkedIn profile) is an author, consultant, teacher and coach  and has over 45+ years of information systems experience in technology management, consulting and marketing positions.

Accelerating digital business transformation requires high levels of digital dexterity, since enterprise leaders will need to take a greater role in managing technology in their own business areas.

CIOs need to shift their focus to develop high digital dexterity — the ambition and ability to work digitally and build digital businesses — across the C-suite.

CIOs must move from primarily educating enterprise leaders toward helping those leaders self-reflect on the need to change their behaviors to realize their digital aspirations.

In this webinar Neil Osmond, (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Distinguished VP, Advisory & James Lord (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Executive Partner will help CIOs enable the behavioral changes that enterprise leaders need to succeed in digital business

Discussion Topics:

• Help other enterprise leaders embrace new ways of working required for digital
• Identify and harness “digital translators” to support business leaders as they expand their ownership of digital initiatives
• Press enterprise leaders to acknowledge their own gaps with “digital humility”
