Executive leadership teams are generally optimized for three approaches: Individual functional excellence; more stability than volatility; and making decisions based on experience and authority.

However, recent exogenous shocks overturn each of these assumptions.

Regardless of functions, executive leaders collectively must be a trusting team that works together to solve complex enterprise-wide problems, setting aside a focus on individual success for team wins.

But where and how do executive teams need to change to thrive in this new world order?

Join this Gartner leadership webinar as Gartner experts Rob O’Donohue (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director Analyst; and Tina Nunno (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) VP and Gartner Fellow, delve into tactics and strategies for CIOs and executive leaders to lead not just as functional heads but as an enterprise leadership team.

You will walk away from this session with answers to your vital questions, a copy of the research slides and recommended actions to help you achieve your goals.

Discussion Topics:

• Identify the ways to become a high-performing, interdependent executive team
• Navigate the complexities facing an executive leadership
• Collaborate more effectively with a shared purpose to win together

Assurance reviews are essential to the overall good governance of major public projects and programs; in this webinar, Hang Vo, Terry Williams (LinkedIn profile), & Richard Kirkham (LinkedIn profile) explores  some of the challenges around framing and implementing assurance review recommendations during the life-cycle.

PMI funded a research study led by The University of Hull, which seeks to uncover how the treatment of assurance review data influences recommendations and the subsequent actions (or inactions) that arise, using a definitive set of data.

During the webinar,  the presenters discuss some of the implications arising from the findings of this study, explore suggestions for improving current assurance processes in practice and identify recommendations for future research.

Project managers face two competing imperatives,

1. To be as fast and efficient as possible, and
2. To improve what you do and how you do it.

The first one is about being on budget, on time and on target. The second one is about doing that better than you did it last time, perhaps radically better. In other words innovating the products you develop and the processes you use to do that.

In this webinar you will learn a simple intuitive framework—a mindset—for thinking about your work, that enables that innovation. A switch that will make you and your team more adaptive, resilient and resourceful, as you enhance rather than compromise your efficiency.

In This Session You will:

• Learn to recognize patterns of thinking and behavior that promote innovation, as well as the patterns that undermine it
• Learn how to shift your mindset to become a more effective innovator and optimize the way you and your team think about the challenges you face
• Gain actionable research-based insights into how to maximize the value you create
• Discover strategies you can apply throughout your professional and personal life, to handle any challenge more effectively

This approach has been demonstrated to radically improve the probability of achieving exceptional business outcomes.
