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

Over the past several years, there has been a dramatic change in when, where, and how we work.

What hasn’t changed is the need for people to work together to achieve shared goals and the need for organizations to get things done through the power of teams.

1. What behaviors derail productivity and fracture trust?
2. What actions foster accountability and drive connection?

Christa will explore:

• A globally validated framework designed to challenge teams to rethink their approach when working together.
• A high-level overview of The Five Behaviors^® model and how it can work for you
• Insights that you can apply to your own teams and organization

The Five Behaviors^® model takes the form of a pyramid, with each behavior serving as a foundation for the next: building trust, generating productive conflict, achieving commitment, embracing accountability, and focusing on results.
