Do you really understand your company’s business model?

If an IT leader does not fully understand their business model, they really cannot provide and deliver value to the organization.

• Recognize the importance of understanding your enterprise’s business model(s)
• Understand and apply the components of the Gartner Business Model
• Identify opportunities for technology to engage with and challenge your business partners

Bringing a sustainable future into our grasp relies upon the successful execution of thousands of well-conceived projects.

Project management and project leaders are critical in achieving more sustainable practices. Executives must provide them with more flexibility in managing projects, moving past the traditional “iron triangle” of project management — managing time, budget, and quality.

Sustainability cannot be achieved simply through rigid planning and traditional project targets.

Project managers must be unleashed to reach these goals innovatively. CEOs should empower a new kind of sustainability-focused project manager to lead organizational transformation.

The Project Management Office (PMO) can play an important role when analyzing new project ideas. It should develop new guidelines for sponsors and managers to increase the focus of their projects on such sustainable outcomes and benefits.

In this webinar is based on Antonio Nieto-Rodriquez, (LinkedIn profile) latest Harvard Business Review article; Project Leaders Will Make or Break Your Sustainability Goals, and she will cover three steps to help you drive the sustainability transformation in your organization.

Learning Outcomes:

1. What is a sustainable-focused project leader?
2. How to design and champion projects where sustainability transformation is the goal.
3. Learn how to apply the project canvas to design your sustainability transformation.

Trust is an essential element of being able to lead projects and manage change.

While that statement represents a fundamental and enduring truth, the challenge is that in many cases it is entirely absent, particularly at the start of large-scale change efforts that are going to uproot the status quo.

To successfully lead change, building credibility and establishing trust is absolutely vital. The problem is that there isn’t a lot of guidance around about how to make that happen.

In this presentation, Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management explores what it takes to build up credibility from zero, and build an environment of respect and trust.

He explores what is necessary to make a difference when trust is low and the stakes are high, and what leaders and project managers can do to turn that around. He provides insights into why trust gets eroded, and the essential factors for being able to build it up—or restore it when it has been lost.

For anyone leading in a complex and uncertain environment—and today, that is all of us—this is a webinar that you won’t want to miss.
