EXECUTION: In today's business environment, managing projects is a critical success factor. As busy leaders, we are finding that today, more than ever, there are more projects to complete with limited resources. Our projects may range from small 3-person teams to large, multi-functional, system-wide projects that command serious capital investment. But how do we know which projects take priority? How do we hold our project teams accountable? How do we get more things done with fewer resources and less time?

This interactive session will provide you with tools and techniques for the busy leader to help you in managing projects and people. Topics includes, but not limited to:

• Connecting projects with the organization's vision and strategy
• Knowing the difference between projects and ongoing operations
• Holding each other accountable and responsible for delivering on our commitments
• Managing trade-offs - between cost, schedule, and performance
• Making good and sometimes tough business decisions in managing projects

This session is for executives, leaders, and managers who support, sponsor, or are involved with key initiatives and projects. Take away key tools and techniques from this session to help you deliver business results through effective project management.
