Other research indicates that during this period of The Great Resignation, the population in America has virtually flat-lined.

85% of executives cite change as critical to business success in these disruptive times. Yet all too often it is seen as a threat.

If change is so important, why are people afraid of it? What is stopping them adopting an innovative and growth mindset?

Quite simply, it’s our subconscious biases that protect the status quo and our tendency to emphasise the negative at the expense of the positive – negativity bias. Change creates winners and losers and the fear of loss looms larger than gain. Yet we all have the ultimate tool, built for change, at our disposal… our brain!

Neuroplasticity – our natural ability to change. The fundamental architecture of the brain is to change and adapt.

Humans can adapt to any habitat on the planet from the Poles to the Equator. Think also of the languages we may have to learn depending on where we are born.

The neurobiology behind this is our brain’s remarkable ability to re-wire itself to cope with changing circumstances. When we learn or experience something new, thousands of neurons wire together to map this new knowledge.

It’s time to switch mindset Whether it is restructuring, digital transformation, or new processes, this workshop demonstrates how we are designed to adapt.

By adopting a growth mindset, change can be seen as an opportunity for success. We’ll show how focusing on the positive and really listening to employees’ concerns helps the brain adjust its response to change and perceived threat.

Key Benefits:

• Neutralise the non-conscious barriers to change.
• Reduce fear to create a fertile environment for change.
• Understand neuroplasticity and the brain’s ability to rewire itself.
• Know how to change mindset from fixed to growth.
• Gain the tools to lead change successfully and bring your people with you.

Modern work can be complicated, and economic pressures require businesses to improve continuously.

The need for innovation, distributed teams, and competitive and regulatory pressures drive an organization to improve and learn constantly.  Learning throughout the project is not something that should be the focus of only the Agile approaches, such as scrum.

From experience, it is not motivating for a team to burn their metaphorical hand on the same familiar stove burner.  A team with recurring failures of the same type differs from how to improve morale or grow competencies.

Failures may not be fatal if these are used as opportunities to learn.  Failure is not motivating when nothing new is learned or experienced.

In this webinar Jon Quigley (LinkedIn profile) will discuss learning opportunities, things our project can do to encourage learning, and what things we do that discourage learning and growth.

Today’s projects are exponentially more complex than yesterday’s, and the need for accurate and timely assurance is more important than ever.

Projects are the backbone of progress. They are a constant in all sectors, and their impact is huge. For every £1 spent on infrastructure projects, £3 is generated for our economy. With £650 billion committed in public and private infrastructure funding over the next decade in the UK alone, the opportunity is awesome.

It’s essential – especially in these uncertain and challenging times – these projects are delivered well, safely, on time and on budget. This is not just to ensure that benefits are delivered, but also to maintain and build confidence in funders and investors. Unfortunately, it’s not always the case that projects are delivered well.

Digital dependence is greater; the asset-people interface more intricate, and the corporate responsibility demands are bigger than ever. Projects need a more sophisticated, comprehensive assurance model so that owners, financers, investors, delivery teams and end-users have confidence in successful delivery.

It’s time for a step-change. We need to move on and focus on the role assurance can play to fix this problem. The assurance process needs to be integrated into the project, and we increasingly need a systems-based approach to deliver, that integrates all the work packages of very different delivery methodologies and scopes.

Join Joe Manning (LinkedIn profile) & Liam Hewitt (LinkedIn profile) for a discussion that makes the case for this change and identifies the challenges that need to be overcome. They will talk about key focusses needed for assurance to evolve, and they will be seeking your opinion on how to shape assurance for the better.
