Delivering higher-value projects in increasingly shorter timeframes sustains competitiveness.

Challenges exist at every turn; risk must be understood and mitigated, and problems recognized and solved quickly.

Adaptive reasoning and problem-solving skills have become increasingly important in project management, where decisions based on sometimes sparse, voluminous, or contradictory data must be dealt with, verified and conveyed to a diversity of team members – often under stressful, time-sensitive circumstances.

In such situations, project managers’ ability to update their mental models precisely, draw valid conclusions, and effectively deploy response through team members is critical.

This presentation discusses how advancements in adaptive reasoning and problem-solving skills resulting from the development of structured approaches to innovation are changing perceptions of project deliverables (time, quality, cost, risk management, et al).

Presenter: Dana W. Clarke, Sr. (LinkedIn profile) President/CEO of Applied Innovation Alliance LLC, specializes on the advancement and practical application of Structured Innovation and TRIZ (The Theory of Inventive Problem Solving).  Author of TRIZ: Through the Eyes of an American TRIZ Specialist & 40 Principles: TRIZ Keys to Innovation [Extended Edition]  His expertise encompasses the practical applications, consulting, facilitation and training of methodologies and business practices. As an expert in Strategic Planning, Competitive Intelligence, Business Process Innovation, Quality Function Deployment, and TRIZ. Dana became the first American to become internationally recognized as a Level 4 TRIZ Specialist by the International Association of TRIZ.

Project implementation is required to reach the desired outcomes in business. There, advancement in right direction with effectively managing the scarce resource optimization is always critical and most needed.

You develop a WBS, apply project management systems, particularly EVM and then settle down with project monitoring and control processes to reach the end result – but is that enough? No, not at all.

Every system, process and methodology is put to use with the will of a team member and the level of connectivity with the task that is the “point” for taking timely action.

Your focus is required on managing the human resource, particularly connecting the team members with purpose and the objectives of the project.

Additionally, you focus on how to help satisfy each team member’s personal value.

There the human factors are of prime importance for high engagement and meaningfulness in work.

Learn how to accomplish this, as well as:

1. The effective approach for connectivity of team members
2. Why aligning the personal value is important with that of a project
3. Why dealing with negative emotions is important
4. How to maintain the connectivity

Aslam Mirza (LinkedIn profile) as President of Integrated Management Services he helps Organizational Transformation, building capacity to enhance Organizational competence for advancement in strategic direction, effective governance & control.

Traditional project management was built on three pillars or three P’s: project, program, and portfolio.

Organizations are starting to recognize the importance of products and services, in the delivery of value to customers, and implementing strategy in organizations.

Project managers not only need to understand the role of their project to support the strategy of organizations but how the product they are building will support that strategy and realize the value to customers.

In this webinar Peter Monkhouse & Joanna Tivig will look at the inter-dependency between products and product portfolios with projects, programs, and project portfolios. The webinar will highlight the need for project managers to understand the relationship between portfolios, programs, projects, and products to support organizations in implementing strategy. It is time for products to become the fourth P of project management.
