| Event Description |
It doesn't matter how talented a consultant you are, if you can't manage to lead your projects then you will struggle to achieve success. Many projects are a predictable manner of changes, surprises and disasters, but how can you survive it and make sure that you or your project team avoids these pitfalls?
According to Kimberly Wiefling, author of the top-selling U.S. project management book, "Scrappy Project Management -The 12 Predictable and Avoidable Pitfalls Every Project Faces", 70% percent of project failures are due to leadership's strategic failure to execute. Turning vision, values, and strategy into results is a key responsibility of the project leader.
Join us for this highly interactive and engaging meeting as Kimberly shows you how to move knowing to doing. Kimberly will provide you with powerful tools and an effective approach that you can implement immediately to accomplish this daunting responsibility with measurably improved results:
* Learn to motivate your project team and earn the support of other stakeholders in order to execute with excellence
* Create viable and actionable plans that enlist the support of those who must implement them
* Commit to carrying these plans into action in pursuit of breakthrough results that may have initially seemed impossible
* Leave with the confidence and resolve required to successfully achieve your breakthrough goals both now and in the future
Key take-aways:
* Turning Ideas Into Action - A Framework for Executing with Excellence
* Determine the "WHO?", "WHAT?" and "HOW?" of implementation
* Identify obstacles to success and create plans to avoid them
* Improve the speed and effectiveness of your company's execution
* Double your chances of success over traditional approaches to management
