The covid-19 pandemic provided a significant challenge to the charity sector, but also in facing that challenge, opportunities to grow and strengthen practice.

This webinar will provide a perspective on what charities have been doing and can do now to prepare for the future.

Over 60% of charities have dipped into their reserves since the covid-19 pandemic started. The YoungMinds PMO has risen to the challenge, building a broader, strategic programme management office that is able to deliver significant value to the organisation and offer a broad range of services.

YoungMinds is the UK’s leading charity fighting for children and young people’s mental health.

They strive towards a world where no young person feels alone with their mental health, and all young people get the mental health support they need, when they need it, no matter what.

Join Patrick Scott (LinkedIn profile) Head of PMO for the charity YoungMinds and learn to lead a high impact, strategic programme management office, integrated with the design, implementation and delivery of your strategy.

Are You Too Soft?

Most Project Manager/Business Analyst leaders are not consistently willing to make the tough and unpopular project-related decisions, even though their instincts warn them that they are not taking the most effective action.

Witness examples of PM/BA actions (or inactions) that are indicative of too-soft behaviour.  Will you recognize familiar behaviour?

You do not have to be rude, insensitive, arrogant, or a bully
to avoid being too soft!

None of these attributes are acceptable …ever!

Come prepared to rethink what constitutes effective project management and business analyst leadership behaviour.

Course Learning Objectives Include:

• How to become a more effective leader
• How to avoid being too soft
• How to become a more effective leader

With the Course You Will Receive:

• Download – Power Snippets
• Personalized Certificate of Attendance
