In OCM, the most common mistake is to focus only on transitioning to the new systems or processes and not on the people.

People are the single most important factor that drives successful change adoption. Organizations that fail to deliver their strategic initiatives often find the lack of stakeholder involvement and engagement counterproductive.

Stakeholders view proposed changes through their beliefs and perceptive filters. They often see projects as untenable headwinds, so making the business case for the project is much easier than making the subjective What’s In It For Me (WIIFM) case. Your mind has to arrive first!

Successful projects require a prescriptive approach driven by Transformational Leadership and Organizational Change Management so that adoption, usage, and proficiency occur.

During this session, learn the difference between change and transformation and why the latter is preferred.

 Dr. Patricia Anderson (LinkedIn profile) will teach you about the different leadership and OCM practices to engage in through the project phases and which to avoid.  Learn how to move from the abstract to the “why” and then on to the concrete “how” we’re going to change and drive successful project outcomes.

What You Want, How You Feel, What You Say

Individual and team success depends upon the ability of individuals to communicate with others, face-to-face as well as virtually.

Every interaction with another person determines how you are perceived and every interaction is an opportunity to develop trust and exert positive influence.

Whether presenting one-to-one or to an audience of one thousand, conveying information to a project team or delivering a difficult message, communicating effectively is one of the most powerful skills for achieving your objectives.

• Define goals for specific communications
• Key skills involved in communicating clearly and with impact
• Barriers to effective communication
• Planning your communication strategy

Effective project leaders use critical thinking throughout their projects, from planning, decision making, problem solving, allocating resources, setting priorities, leading change, managing conflict, negotiating, to making financial decisions.

Often project leaders must make decisions in an environment of VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous).

In this webinar Aina Aliieva (LinkedIn profile) & Michael Hoagland (LinkedIn profile) will explore methods and skills of the critical thinking process including recognizing bias and the psychological factors that hinder critical thinking.

Ania & Michael  will also have a discussion with some examples from their quite diverse backgrounds on the role of critical thinking in project management.

Messaging in project management can be everything. But for many PMs, it comes as an afterthought.

Carl draws on his decade-plus as a member of the media (and his Journalism degree) to explain how project managers (and any other managers) can leverage the basic concepts of journalism, from the six basic questions to the inverted pyramid to the follow-on.

He examines the three most common mistakes we make in everything from e-mail to project reports, and drives home the need to remember what the receiver needs to hear.
