Online Webinar – Recorded At Infoshare 2014 Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media 0.5 PDU – Free Provider: The Lazy Project Manager
What Is Productive Laziness?
‘Progress isn’t made by early risers. It’s made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something.’ Robert Heinlein (1907 – 1988)
By advocating being a ‘lazy’ project manager Peter does not intend that we should all do absolutely nothing.
Peter is not saying we should all sit around drinking coffee, reading a good book and engaging in idle gossip whilst watching the project hours go by and the non-delivered project milestones disappear over the horizon. That would obviously be plain stupid and would result in an extremely short career in project management, in fact probably a very short career full stop!
Lazy Does Not Mean “Stupid”
Peter just means that we should all adopt a more focused approach to project management and to exercise our efforts where it really matters, rather than rushing around like busy, busy bees involving ourselves in unimportant, non-critical activities that others can better address, or indeed that do not need addressing at all in some cases.

Each year, PMI’s ‘Pulse of the Profession” Reports describe the money lost because of failed projects. In 2016, for example, it showed $122 million was lost for every $1 billion spent – a large number.
This webinar goes further and focuses on a solution – one that requires a major culture change with guidelines on its implementation.
Whether one works in a silo-driven or project-oriented organization, or is a coordinator or a full-time manager, there are many obstacles to overcome.
The key is an integrated approach – no longer can the business development staff work in isolation without active involvement from the start by program and project managers.
Further, knowledge management or knowledge transfer cannot be an afterthought for it to be successful, and it must be incorporated from the beginning.
The webinar concludes with guidelines to implement this approach in your organization. Making these changes is the way to help overcome these dismal statistics and show progress as we do so.

In the early 1990’s my search led me to understand the power of servant leadership and the ability to realize the incredible potential in the individuals on my teams.
In the meantime I watched so many new hires in organizations go from engaged, positive, creative and productive to disenchanted, and frustrated as they acclimatized to the traditional corporate culture of their new organizations.
I watched as Managers and Boards took no notice of the people and the potential they had within their organizations; and I was disappointed by so many organizations that were not striving for excellence …. but rather leaving their potential and profit on the table.
A 30% increase in sales in their average restaurant
Average restaurant operating profit is up 40%
Their market share among “Chicken” restaurants is up 50%
Opened 450 + new restaurants including moving into the Canadian marketplace – All performing very well!
Their stock price has increased from ~$13.00 USD when Cheryl started the turn around through the Dare to Serve Model to ~$60.00 USD today
And in the process they were daring to succeed, humble about their leadership path and creating Engaged Franchise Owners, Stakeholders, Shareholders, Managers Team Members, Crew & Guests to produce “Top Notch Relationships” that led to their great success.

Our culture celebrates “The Spotlight Leader.” The leader is on stage – the spotlight is entirely on them – in short, it is all about them.
This leader declares a new vision, has all the answers, and is a high achiever. We tolerate them being a bit self-absorbed because they are going places that we want to go, and if they are successful, we will be successful… so we think.
We vaguely know there is another kind of leadership – Servant leadership. This kind of leader is known for humility.
They shun the spotlight and listen carefully to the people because they care deeply about the people. They make decisions that serve the people well; they give others credit.
We wonder about these leaders ..
But We Shouldn’t!
Watch Cheryl Bachelder, CEO of Popeyes® Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., in these informative sessions on developing a better leadership strategy!
Cheryl wants to suggest a new idea – If you move yourself out of the spotlight and dare to serve others well, you will deliver superior performance results – and she’s got the experience to prove it!
