Projects and programmes come fully equipped with a range of problems to be overcome and decisions that need to be made to move things forward when a solution is found.

There are many different approaches to tackling problems, many books on the subject and a good deal of discussion in the APM Body of Knowledge.

This webinar will introduce a well-documented process that Walt Disney used to good effect when developing ideas. It’s known as ‘Imagineering’ and involves approaching a problem from three different perspectives:

• The Dreamer – generating alternatives and possibilities.
• The Realist – helping to define actions and steps.
• The Critic – evaluating payoffs and drawbacks.

In this centenary year of the opening of the original Walt Disney studios, we have assembled a group of experts who use this process to create a flexible and effective problem-solving ‘engine’ for their clients. Once taught, it can be used again and again in your environment.

Robert Dilts (LinkedIn profile) will be inviting questions and input from the audience.

At its core, Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a graphical representation of the steps involved in delivering a product or service, capturing both the value-added and non-value-added activities.

By mapping out every step in a process and the interaction between these steps, VSM offers a bird’s eye view, enabling project managers to identify inefficiencies, redundancies, and areas for improvement.

If you are looking for a clear understanding of how value is being added and where waste occurs in your workflow, be it in time, resources, or effort, this webinar is for you.
