This 60-minute Audio Teleconference will discuss:
a.. Dealing with mandated dates
b.. Improving team estimates
c.. Avoiding the project blame game
d.. A new twist to post-project negotiations
e.. Real world advice
Abstract
Project managers are routinely faced with dilemmas. Dilemmas such as sponsors mandating unreachable dates, teams unable to give reliable estimates, changing priorities and scope, and a myriad of other issues. The reactions to these issues generally range from utter frustration to apathy. The reactions then lead to emotional conversations such as "We can't possibly do this by then!" or "The Sponsor doesn't understand!" Rick will teach from his personal experience how to take these emotionally charged situations and turn them into unemotional conversations. This will not be the latest fad or psychology, but a simple, time-tested, experience based method to communicate with the entire project team from stakeholders to team members. Rick will share techniques on how to deal with mandated dates to the extremely tense post negotiation of a project gone very wrong. The techniques will be applicable for internal project managers to consultants, and everywhere in between. How to turn emotional conversations into unemotional conversations has been what Rick feels as his personal key to his success.
"We've all inherited projects that have one foot in the grave however Rick's practical method on saving those troubled projects is truly brilliant. His real life accounts are more than entertaining. By following his tried and true processes you are guaranteed success!"
Corrie Sigler, Project Manager, Saks Incorporated
