Online Webinar – Recorded February 7th, 2018 Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media 1 PDU – Free Provider: The Corporate Education Group( REP 1011 )
The Project Management Institute (PMI) has published the 6th edition of A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) and a companion guide dedicated to agile practices.
The impetus?
According to the PMI 2017 Pulse of the Profession® report, a full 71% of organizations say they are using agile approaches for their projects sometimes, often, or always. And yet, for many practitioners the adoption of agile practices often means a diminished role for the project manager.
Join Bonnie Cooper in this webinar to explore the agile infusion in the PMBOK® Guide and the companion Agile Practice Guide, as well, and the reality of trying to integrate traditional project management and incremental, adaptive development practices.
Learning goals:
Review of the PMBOK Guide – Sixth Edition changes and Agile Practice Guide

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

As organizations pursue their strategic goals, they likely maintain a project portfolio that is a mix of stable, definable projects built on proven procedures in addition to the more risky and undefined projects that are meant to create new products, services, or capabilities.
Project managers who can deliver results in an iterative fashion, with a high level of stakeholder involvement and increased customer feedback loops, are the first choice for these project assignments. That is because they demonstrate facility with the new tools of the agile project manager.
Learning points covered in this webinar include:
Picking the right methodology for the job
Choosing what skills and relationships to enhance
Understanding how project planning, tracking, and team management work in these hybrid settings
Knowing your role in supporting organization change management

However, sometimes, we find ourselves faced with challenging conversations that require finesse and skill to handle. This talk, we will delve into the art of engaging in difficult discussions while also safeguarding our professional integrity.
Throughout the project lifecycle, project leaders often encounter situations where they must initiate or participate in tough conversations with various stakeholders, customers, team members, and other involved parties.
These conversations may range from addressing conflicts and disputes to becoming the messenger of undesirable news that can expose us to potential backlash.
On the other hand, some project leaders may intentionally introduce a level of non-hostile positive conflict to encourage innovative thinking and creativity within the project.
In this engaging session will provide valuable insights and actionable strategies to empower project leaders to navigate such challenging conversations effectively.
Marion will share practical tips on how to approach these situations with confidence, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both the project and our colleagues.
