Redefining Purpose and Leadership for the 21st Century
Change Management is often referred to as the "soft” stuff in projects. Then why does it seem so hard at times? What should be straightforward can end up convoluted and nonsensical. In an extended study of Critical Success Factors for program success, four of the top five items were people-related. Yet if we've known about the need for 'people success' for decades, why is it still at the top of CSF lists and (more importantly) why are some projects still failing due to people issues? In the 21st Century, everything has sped up - deadlines, demands, results – with more risks and more issues to deal with, all at the same time.
21st Century projects are not your grandparents’ projects: 21st Century Leadership is not, either. To deal with many different challenges, many new constraints, and seemingly impossible problems, the last century's approaches may not work today.
Based on new research and real-world experience, this webinar offers new thinking into 21st-century PM challenges. Transactive Leadership is a shared leadership and accountability model that works locally, virtually, and globally. Collaborative team alignment is a process that can be done quickly and effectively to meet instant project needs. Shifting project and organizational mindsets can significantly increase productivity and effectiveness, going beyond transition to transformation. This webinar outlines these and other 21st-century tools that work and reduce the ‘work of worry’ for project managers.
