Provider: Association for Project Management – APM

The project environment is all about creating change from something to something else. There is always an expected outcome or outcomes.

Sometimes these are defined at the start and sometimes they can change in a more agile way during a project’s lifetime.What is important is that outcomes are considered in a way that is structured and sustainable throughout the project lifetime. In discussion with two experts in their fields; Michael Dunlop (LinkedIn profile) & Kim Kapur (LinkedIn profile) (healthcare delivery and major rail infrastructure) this webinar explored how to make project outcomes more effective and ‘ecological’ in the sense of not threatening other aspects of the project or organisation by setting targets that cannot be delivered without major disruption.

A model they discuss in this webinar is the well-formedness characteristics for any outcome, as proposed in Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), which are that it is:

• -Stated in the positive
• Defined using sensory-based evidence (measurable)
• Initiated and maintained by those who want the outcome
• Preserving the positive by-products of the present state
• Appropriately contextualised to surrounding ecology

The expert panel shared their experience of setting and achieving outcomes, and how to avoid pitfalls.
