The best project managers know that managing the expectations, goals and objectives of key stakeholders is critical to project success.

If the stakeholders aren’t satisfied, even the most efficient and well-executed project won’t be deemed successful in the eyes of those that matter most.

The best way to ensure stakeholder needs are met is to establish them up front, along with clear and mutually agreed upon communication and project completion requirements.

By considering stakeholder perceptions while developing the project charter and project plan, you can avoid unnecessary readjustments during project execution.

Bonnie will review:

• How to initiate projects that help your organization achieve its goals
• How to develop a project charter and a project management plan
• How to identify and analyze project stakeholders and determine their information needs and communication requirements
• How to manage stakeholder expectations and ensure their satisfaction

The pace of technology is staggering and the notion that machines will replace our jobs is receiving considerable attention.

By 2025 machines will perform more work tasks than humans, according to the World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report. This prediction has worried workers and employers.

The good news is that organizations are thinking about the social implications of this man/machine shift and considering their options.

Deloitte’s 2019 Global Human Capital Trends report, “Leading the social enterprise: Reinvent with a human focus” reflects polling results of nearly 10,000 respondents in 119 countries.

Amongst its findings, CEOs were asked to rate their most important measure of success in 2019. The No. 1 issue they cited was “impact on society, including income inequality, diversity and the environment”.

Join Brett Wilson, Sr. Director of Thought Leadership & Strategy at Cornerstone and Julie Hiipakka, Vice President and Learning Research Leader at Bersin, Deloitte Consulting as they discuss:

• The pace of technology and its effect on jobs
• Design principles for the social enterprise
• The key 2019 human capital trends and their influence over the future of the workforce, the future of the organization, and the future of HR
• Key takeaways and approaches HR organizations can leverage to be better prepared for the “reinvention” ahead
