Real-World Project Management Webinar Series

Projects are one of the key areas of a business where risk management is essential to satisfy both internal and external stakeholders. However, it is one of the project management tools that is the least well understood or applied, meaning that it can be seen as a waste of resources without adding any value in the process. 

It is, therefore, quite often paid lip service to, and ends up with an unhelpful, boring review of a bad risk register. 

When risk management is carefully planned, it can make a real difference and add value to the project.  This starts from the top (management) with real commitment, from the initial stages of the project, continuing across the project (at all levels) and throughout the project life cycle.

We must consider how to be realistic about what projects are trying to achieve and the real commitment needed to making risk management work – at the same time recognising some of the contractual pressures that teams face, that are not usually faced by operational activities within an organisation.

In this webinar Kate & Sarah will explore the gaps often seen in project risk management, and how to ensure tools are applied through:

• Real commitment
• Real planning
• Real risks
• Real controls

Preparing For Projects In A Post-Pandemic World

As project managers, we tend to treat projects with a strongly ‘mechanistic’ approach: the work can be broken down, executed and controlled as a series of interlocking parts.

This is the technical, engineering-based conceptualisation, derived from the roots of the subject. While acknowledging the many benefits of this view, mindful project management ventures beyond this mechanistic approach, into the unknown and the unexpected.

In this webinar Dr. Elmar Kutsch (LinkedIn profile) 2017 winner of the the Cranfield SOM Teaching and Learning Faculty award for excellence in researching, developing, delivering and publishing impactful case studies; critically reviews the key practices of risk management and scenario planning, and their suitability to take us to and beyond the risk horizon.

Progressive government organizations aim to develop a strong risk culture, as they strive to avoid an excessive reliance on formal risk management systems and processes to achieve their desired objectives.

Yet, for most, a strong risk culture is an abstract concept that is difficult to understand, let alone influence.

In this webinar Mark Battin (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Advisory Director, looks at the fundamentals of risk culture, the value of a strong risk culture in government organizations, and what they can to improve and influence risk culture.

Discussion Topics:

• A clear definition of risk culture
• The value of a strong risk culture in these increasingly uncertain times
• Key actions for influencing risk culture
