Straightforward Risk Management for Projects You Can Do Now
Presented By Neil Potter
Risk management is comparable to preventive health care or insurance for your
project. It involves identifying potential problems (risks), analyzing those
risks, planning to manage them, and reviewing them. This webinar with Neil
Potter and Mary Sakry will step you through a straightforward risk process for
assessing and managing risks that you can perform immediately with your team..

Are Your Project Stakeholders Satisfied?
Presented By Tom Cagley
Measuring customer satisfaction is more than just asking if your clients got
what they wanted. Customer satisfaction is a messy mix of expectations,
experiences, and perceptions - with maybe a hint of functionality. In this
webinar, Tom Cagley will outline one method for measuring this mixture and for
identifying what really matters in customer satisfaction.

"Managing Change with Resiliency"

Speaker: Joel Haughey


TOPIC

The phrase 'in transition' which we use to describe theperiod of time after one job ends, while we are searching for ournext role, means something different for all of us. It can mean denial, anxiety, confusion anger, creativity, hopefulness, relief, excitement, enthusiasm -- or ALL of the above. In other words, being 'in transition' is a time of significant change, and the saying "the only constant is change" is especially relevant.

Change and transition, whether perceived as positive or negative can be stresful and have lasting impact on us. There is no escaping change, but there are ways you can learn how to handle it and to "bounce back" faster from it's impact. The collection of skills, characteristics, habits and outlooks that make it possible to remain flexible and fresh in the face of change is often referred to as "resilience" Learning to become more resilient can dramatically improve your attitude and your health in the face of inevitable stress in this time of change.

Potential employers are much more likely to hire a person who demonstrates resiliency and has a positive outlook. In this interactive session, we will review some basics of the change process and explore a number of ways to build our own personal resilience.

Join us on Thursday, October 7th, as Joelle Haughey talks with us about how we can successfully manage our way through transition.

MODERATORS

JOELLE HAUGHEY: Joelle Haughey facilitates, coaches, consults with and trains functional and cross-functional teams at all levels to help them improve their processes, increase their effectiveness and successfully implement change, helping them achieve or exceed business objectives.
