Neal
Whitten's No-Nonsense Advice for Successful Projects
Successful projects don't just happen—they
are made to happen. Neal takes leadership and project
management to a personal level and reveals leading-edge
best practices that make all the difference between
leading consistently successful projects and playing
the victim with troubled projects. Focusing mostly
on leadership and soft skills, but including hard
skills and life skills, this seminar reveals choices
to make and behaviors to adopt that are invaluable
in helping a person become a successful project manager
and leader. The seminar is based largely on Neal's
new book, Neal Whitten's No-Nonsense Advice for
Successful Projects.
Let’s Talk! No-Nonsense Leadership, Accountability and Professional Maturity
Leadership, accountability, and professional maturity issues are common on projects—too common. This highly interactive seminar addresses these issues head-on. Through a Q&A venue, attendees pose short problem scenarios from either a seminar-provided list or their personal list. The attendees then propose their best shot at how the scenario might best be handled. The instructor then evaluates the solutions and reveals the right course of action. The seminar takes learning to a personal level and is facilitated by a leading industry authority.
Project
Review Mentoring Workshop
This workshop is an unusually powerful tool in that
it combines assessing the health of ongoing projects
while mentoring all those in attendance in the lessons
learned from each project reviewed. It brings the
real world into the classroom through focusing the
workshop attendees on analyzing ongoing real projects
for areas of improvement and areas of praise. By the
conclusion of the workshop, the attendees are armed
with a list of recommendations to take back to their
projects and implement. No theory or schoolbook jargon
here, only specific real-world solutions to real-world
problems.
Role
Clarification Workshop
Attended by project managers and resource managers
(includes entry level to middle managers to executives),
this highly interactive workshop is driven by problem
scenarios and defines the roles and responsibilities
of these two critical leadership positions and how
they can best work together for the mutual good of
the enterprise. The major problems inhibiting the
success of an organization and its projects can be
traced back to the leadership skills exhibited by
those that hold the critical positions of project
manager and resource manager.
Leadership,
Accountability and YOU
If there is a leadership and accountability problem—whether
large or small—in your project or organization,
this unique workshop may be just what you need. This
workshop exposes problems that attendees are experiencing
in the performance of their duties. It also reveals
actions to help remedy those problems. This workshop
can be unusually effective in showing attendees professionally
mature behavior that projects, organizations and companies
need and want to help them perform at their best.
The
Essentials of Software/IT Project Management: Best
Practices
An insightful, no-nonsense, knowledge-rich, educational
experience that can have an immediate and positive
impact on your current or next project. This workshop
cuts to the quick and reveals the essentials in practicing
effective software/IT project management—the
first time. Based largely on two of Neal's books,
The EnterPrize Organization:
Organizing Software Projects for Accountability and
Success and Managing
Software Development Projects: Formula for Success,
and on dozens of magazine articles authored by Neal,
this workshop identifies the most common "big
ticket" project management problems plaguing
software development/IT projects—and shows you
how to effectively deal with them. This workshop reveals
project management best practices—including essential
soft skills—and is taught by a leading, recognized
authority and 30-year veteran of software/IT projects.
Prepare to learn more than project management; prepare
to learn about yourself, human nature, and how to
make things happen.
Becoming
an Indispensable Employee in a Disposable World
Do you have what it takes to contribute to the sustained
success of your organization? There is a direct link
between the continuing success of a project, program,
or process, and the self-directed behavior that project
leaders and members must be taught to practice. Learn
how to capitalize on the six fundamental issues facing
today's employees and their leaders: Believing in
Yourself, Taking Charge of Your Performance, Communicating
Effectively with Others, Satisfying Your Customers,
Developing the Right Menu of Skills, and Balancing
Your Professional Life with Your Personal Life. Your
workshop leader will demonstrate that each of us has
choices we can make and behaviors we can adopt to
become more valuable and productive members in today's
workplace. This workshop is based on Neal's book,
Becoming an Indispensable Employee in a Disposable
World.
