We often try to bypass the uncertainties we encounter in our work as managers.

However, in this presentation I would suggest to you that by using simple principles from complexity thinking you might be managing uncertain contexts and decisions much better.

In the presentation Eitan Reich (LinkedIn profile) will describe how exactly complex, dynamic situations are different from simple and even complicated ones.

Also learn about key principles of complexity thinking that would be useful in your change projects and for your decision making, planning and managing processes.

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

Executive leaders cannot predict the future, but they must build a future-fit organization that can withstand disruption.

To do so, they must adopt a deliberate approach to sensing and responding to trends, and understand how trends weave together to impact their strategies.

Executives who cannot adequately spot trends are prone to overlook critical inputs to their strategic assumptions and planning.

This jeopardizes the digital transformation that organizations have invested in and fought so hard to achieve, while also limiting their ability to capitalize on new market opportunities that disruptions may offer.

In this webinar Marty Resnick (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr. Director Analyst will enable executive leaders to better spot trends and disruptions so they can shape a more effective enterprise strategy, and help to minimize complexity, embrace uncertainty, and drive confidence in decision-making while exploring bold new opportunities.

Discussion Topics:

• Identify critical areas of disruption in 7 key areas
• Factor key trends into your business models and strategic planning
• Drive confidence in decision-making while exploring bold new opportunities
