The world is becoming a difficult place to work as a Project Manager.

We’re working globally, across time zones and cultures, with new technology, and industries and projects are losing money at a staggering rate (Every 20 seconds, nearly $1 million is wasted globally due to poor implementation of strategy – PMI Pulse of the profession 2018).

We need to adapt. As Project Managers, we are leading the way and bringing projects to success or failure.

  • What can we do to change the statistics?
  • How can we buck the trend of poor performance and reoccurring issues in projects?

We need to learn how to work in this new environment and how we can excel.

In this webinar Emily Luijbregts (LinkedIn profile) will show you how to do that by providing practical examples for how you can become a chameleon and succeed with complex projects.

Gain an understanding of why it is important to have an adaptive management style; obtain some ideas for how you can change your management style towards your team; and define personal changes that you need to make to lead your projects successfully.

The hype surrounding artificial intelligence has reached a fever pitch, largely driven by the release of specific generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Bard.

Most AI investments focus on isolated capabilities for single-use cases, missing the potential of integrating AI to tackle real business problems and unlock diverse applications.

Organizations risk falling behind competitors if they continue with ad hoc AI investments. Enterprise architecture (EA) leaders must quickly enable their organizations to strategically design, invest in, and integrate AI into their existing IT systems.

Join Lucas Kobat (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Principal to explore a five-phase framework for leveraging AI within your organization.

From identifying viable use cases to managing AI outputs, this framework offers a comprehensive approach to effectively incorporate AI into your operations and ensure you stay competitive in the AI-driven landscape.

Discussion Topics:

  • Identify and align targeted business outcomes with AI opportunities
  • Acquire the necessary data to fuel your AI model selection
  • Continuously monitor and enhance deployed AI capabilities

Creative avatars is a great way to represent typical employees or customers that you’re talking about in your training but it has always been hard to find a variety of avatars drawn in the same style and give those avatars the expressions you want to portray.

For example, a common situation is to show a before and after situation.

A customer might be frustrated before they buy your product and then, hopefully, be happy and you want to show an avatar expressing both those emotions.

PowerPoint cartoon characters give you all the tools you need to accomplish this.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • How to mix and match expressions, heads, bodies, and positions
  • How to change colors – and what you can’t change
  • How to create an avatar library to save you time when you use your avatars again

Ellen says using the cartoon people is fun! Come & enjoy.
