One of the most significant questions for the future of the project management profession will be our position in relation to huge, complex, and overwhelming environmental and societal problems that cannot be resolved by any organization, government and individual alone.

Those problems are often referred to as Grand Challenges.

The climate crisis is a prime example of a Grand Challenge with an increasing urgency that needs to be addressed if societies around the world are to survive and prosper.

Up to now, project management as a profession has been key for ‘getting things done’, and as such is likely to be a key part of the solution for climate change and other such Grand Challenges.

In the webinar Efrosyni Konstantinou (LinkedIn profile), & Jenny McArthur (LinkedIn profile), Rob Leslie-Carter (LinkedIn profile), & Vedran Zerjav (LinkedIn profile) will reports the findings of PMI funded research to address the question of how project, program, and portfolio management (P3M) can be utilized and extended to deal with the climate crisis and other grand societal challenges.

One of the key findings of this research is that, while the role of large-scale multinational initiatives will be important, the power of change lies in the hands of project professionals – the people who know projects inside out and have the power to use projects to catalyze change far beyond the boundaries of the project.

Alongside several other key findings from this research, including the types of projects and project practices that are likely to achieve climate change objectives,

in this webinar they will discuss the role and the evolution of the project management profession that will be necessary for governments and organizations to tackle climate change and other grand challenges.

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” The same can be said for a stakeholder’s perception of a project’s success.

Excellent project communications can serve as a catalyst for transforming stakeholder perceptions of a project from good to great – and poor communication damages stakeholder perceptions, even when the project is going well.

In this webinar, you learn the ART of writing project reports that stakeholders actually read. Project communication expert Pete Matassa (LinkedIn profile) will offer tips for creating custom reports and managing stakeholder perceptions.

This webinar will address:

• Traditional/Standard project reporting
• Lean and Agile Hybrid reporting techniques
• Using stakeholder analysis to determine the reporting topics that major stakeholders are interested in
• Creating custom reporting to facilitate stakeholders’ engagement
• Auditing reports to determine communication effectiveness

As a result of attending this webinar, you will be able to:

• Determine which reports fulfill organization requirements and which reports meet stakeholders’ information needs.
• Determine what project areas need to be reported on to enhance stakeholder engagement.
• Determine if your current reporting is effective or just meeting organizational requirements.

Presenter: Pete Matassa, MBA, PMP, PMI-ACP President of Techknowledgy has been creating custom project status reports for diverse stakeholders of IT infrastructure, accounting, system implementation, and process reengineering projects over a twenty-year project management career.
