On February
8th, join us for our guest speakers Erica
Groschler, Andrea Shalinsky and Linda Waddell,
and Project Management Survival: How Not to Get Voted
Off the Island. Strong
'survival' skills are necessary to manage instructional design and performance
improvement projects that have complex organizational politics, constraints, and
competing goals. Join
us for a great interactive evening and learn to: -
Identify potential risks to the success of performance improvement projects
-
Describe the impact of these risks to project deliverables, timelines, project
team members, stakeholders, budget, and the client
-
Create strategies to mitigate and overcome these risks
-
Identify critical project management support strategies
This
session, presented by seasoned 'survivors' (consultants), uses an interactive
case study approach to help participants identify project management risks and
develop strategies to do more than simply 'survive' managing their projects. This
approach will contribute to the development of effective HPT practices, techniques,
processes, and tools for project management survival. | | | | | | | | | Erica
