Workplace change has never been at a higher rate or faster pace than now. PMOs, leaders and their teams grapple with multiple disruptions, from mergers and acquisitions to restructuring, pandemics, and digital transformations.

In today’s dynamic environment, being successful in change is not about being perfect; it’s about being fast and effective so you can move on to the next task or issue—the speed of execution matters.

Adopting one 80/20 action to address common project challenges is the best strategy. It gives you 80 percent of the results in 20 percent of the time.

In this upbeat and interactive session, we will discuss how you can apply the 80/20 rule to focus in on one action to navigate the tasks and common situations that Project Managers typically encounter during a transformation project.

During this webinar, participants will:

  • Build awareness of how the 80/20 rule enables change management
  • Review examples of how PMs can use the 80/20 approach to manage themselves, manage their work and manage others
  • Identify change tasks and challenges where the 80/20 rule could apply

Every organization in every industry across the globe faces the same directive: Innovate or risk becoming obsolete.

Leaders across the enterprise must embrace new ideas and technologies, and often from new sources of inspiration.

Companies increasingly involve business technologists in innovation initiatives, but to leverage them as force multipliers, IT leaders must move from owning innovation to enabling others to innovate autonomously.

Outages are planned shutdowns of plants for maintenance, including preventative maintenance and defects. Preventative maintenance works have pre-defined scope, a job plan and resource requirements built into a maintenance management system.

The problematic area is corrective maintenance scope (i.e., defects). Defects often result in significant increase in outage scope, known as scope creep.

Scope creep is a serious challenge that outage managers, outage engineers and planners face before and during an outage.

In order for us to manage it, it is necessary to understand what scope creep is—and what its causes are.

If the root causes are taken care of, the problem will be solved by itself!

In the webinar Naveed Rabbani (LinkedIn profile) will discuss this in detail based on practical experience and will be followed by Q&A.

Learning outcomes: 

  • How to effectively manage and control changes in outages
  • How to manage scope during an outage
  • How to limit schedule, cost and scope variances
