Risk Management and Stakeholder Engagement - Free Training Session
What’s the #1 RISK for projects? Time. Money. Political will (or lack of).
Close.
People (in one persons in opinion at least).
Yep. It’s us. And all that comes with us. We, the people, at some point, in some way, are stakeholders in a project, and we present the greatest risk to that project.

Open to all interested in the subject.

      Helping Communities Through Change
No truer statement than the only constant is change. Many housing organizations are undergoing significant changes in how they operate, the subsidy sources they use, and their need to recapitalize and renovate their assets. All involved feel these changes from the frontline management staff often tasked to implement these changes with the residents.
The GOOD NEWS is, CHANGE is highly manageable. This two-hour session will focus on useful skills to aid in developing Change Management Plans and integrating those plans into the organization’s actions, communications, and control of quality and risk in the delivery of projects, programs, and daily functions.

      Stakeholder Engagement Series - ON DEMAND
Part 1
Understanding only comes through engagement. Projects often fail because the expectations, requirements, and elements that will lead to satisfaction are never even discussed on the front end, or as the project progresses. This first session in the series will overview the process of stakeholder engagement from project initiation through closing. Tools and techniques will be discussed as will methods to evaluate objectives, attitudes, and objections.
Part 2
Among the key challenges that project managers face is engaging internal stakeholders including project sponsors, their bosses, and their teams. It is often overlooked that before you can go live with a project, you need to be aligned internally first. You need to be unified, or at least understand what you all strive to achieve. The entire project team needs to understand the requirements of each other. Champions and opponents alike need to be managed. Management without engagement is not successful. This session will dive into power dynamics, roles, and responsibilities and why those are more important than title or location on the org chart, and how to get to the root of what the team values.
Part 3
As with anything, stakeholder engagement gone unmanaged will fail. You may check the box, but you will not achieve the results intended. Working with elected and appointed officials, the public, and other outside of your team is challenging. Some may say, without them anything is easy; however, without them you don’t have a project. A well-designed and executed plan will achieve results, even when those outside of the project team may not like what you have to say. Through successful engagement they will know they have been heard and thus mostly satisfied. Tools and techniques will be discussed as will methods to evaluate objectives, attitudes, and objections.
