Exponential leadership is a dynamic and forward-thinking approach to leadership that thrives in a world of rapid change and technological advancement.

It involves embracing disruption as an opportunity for growth, leveraging technology to drive innovation, empowering people to foster creativity and collaboration, and thinking exponentially by setting audacious goals, taking calculated risks, and staying agile in the face of challenges.

Exponential leaders create environments that encourage creativity, collaboration, and personal growth, recognizing that it’s the collective intelligence and creativity of their teams that drive innovation and success in our ever-evolving world.

Such leaders anticipate trends and position their organizations or teams for exponential growth, challenging the status quo to create a future marked by adaptability, innovation, and positive societal impact.

Donald G. Reinertsen was at Booz Allen Hamilton when he coined the term “Fuzzy Front End” in an article for PMI in the 1980’s.

He did so because he thought there was something going on up there at the beginning of New Product Development but it was fuzzy.

He was interviewed for an article a few years later. By then he had come to dislike the term, “Fuzzy Front End”. He felt that, after more study, there were a number of tools and processes in place (some for decades), that made the front end into a repeatable process.

That concept of Fuzzy Logic (sampling the environment, the market, technology, the competition, etc.) became the basic concept behind this important discovery stage and the basis for many popular branded processes like Hunting for Hunting Grounds™.

Never mind Reinertsen’s new thinking, the term “Fuzzy Front End” was catching on by the mid-90’s in the New Product Development community and perpetuated the myth of this stage as somewhat mystical.

This webinar with Kimberly Johnson (LinkedIn profile), & Christopher Miller (LinkedIn profile) will attempt to demystify the new product discovery.

Meetings are a necessary part of every project manager’s (and agilists’) day. However, as important as these events are (yes, meetings are events!), they are frequently poorly run and leave both meeting leaders and attendees dissatisfied.

This can be detrimental to the project because of inherent miscommunication or non-communication, to say nothing of the reputation of the project leader. In this session, attendees will learn the fundamentals of good meeting management starting with having a good agenda to being “large and in charge” to dealing with meeting goblins – those nasty personalities that sometimes emerge during meetings.

The increasing role of AI in meeting facilitation will also be discussed.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the importance of planning for your meetings and your projects – and how this impacts your project team
• Recognize and deal with disruptive meeting behavior and gain tips on how to prevent others from hijacking your meeting.
• Differentiate online meeting facilitation skills from those needed for face-to-face meetings
• Identify ways in which AI can be (and has already been) made part of meeting facilitation
